FAQ

In general, to make out a false imprisonment claim, you'll need to show these four common elements: the intentional restraint of another person in a confined area. the restrained person doesn't consent to the restraint. the restrained person is aware of the restraint, and. the restraint is without legal justification.

Nominal damages will be awarded to an individual who has suffered no actual damages in consequence to the illegal confinement. In cases where an injured offers proof of injuries suffered, s/he will be compensated with damages for physical injuries, mental suffering, and loss of earnings.

False Imprisonment Defenses. Consent, justification, and self-defense or defense of others are all defenses to hostage false imprisonment.
