FAQ
Fortunately, Arizona has a Victims' Bill of Rights and victim related statutes designed to protect victims from this secondary impact. These rights include the right to be treated with dignity and respect and to be informed of and present at court proceedings where the defendant has a right to be present.
If you believe you have been the victim of a crime, you can file a Criminal complaint online at .azag/complaints OR mail or deliver the completed form below. This form can be completed on the computer or is available to download and print. Please print legibly if completing by hand.
Criminal complaints are normally first started with the application for a complaint, along with an affidavit by the complainant, which is titled an affidavit of probable cause. The judge examines the statements in the application and affidavit.
DIAL 911. If this is an emergency, or a crime, please dial 911 immediately.
A criminal complaint should include specific information about the alleged offense, such as the date, time, and location of the incident, a description of the events, and the names or descriptions of the individuals involved. It should also include any supporting evidence or documentation available.
Unlawful Imprisonment, as mentioned, is a serious offense. Arizona law considers the crime a class 6 felony, meaning, if convicted, the accused faces at least a year in state prison. First time offenders sentenced to incarceration usually receive a one-year sentence, actually spending six months in prison.
Unlawful imprisonment, sometimes referred to as false imprisonment, is defined as detaining another person without legal authorization or against that person's will. Unlawful imprisonment typically occurs when one person prevents another person from leaving a vehicle, room, building, or other some other area.
False imprisonment or unlawful imprisonment occurs when a person intentionally restricts another person's movement within any area without legal authority, justification, or the restrained person's permission. Actual physical restraint is not necessary for false imprisonment to occur.
A conservative estimate is that you can get $1,000 per hour of wrongful incarceration. This figure can go up to many thousands of dollars per hour if aggravating factors apply. For instance, if you had medical complications after your arrest and had to go to the hospital in handcuffs, then your payout could be higher.
