False imprisonment generally refers to the confinement of a person without the consent of such person or without legal authority. For example, if a person wrongfully prevents another from leaving a room or vehicle when that person wants to leave, it amounts to false imprisonment.
To prove a prima facie case of false imprisonment, the following elements need demonstration: An act that completely confines a plaintiff within fixed boundaries. An intention to confine. Defendant is responsible for or the cause of the confinement.
Examples of false imprisonment may include: A person locking another person in a room without their permission. A person grabbing onto another person without their consent, and holding them so that they cannot leave.
False imprisonment by fraud or deceit consists of curtailing someone else's liberty by lying to them. The fraud or deceit must be intentional. For instance, if you tell a co-worker to stay in his office due to a bomb threat, believing it to be true, you haven't committed false imprisonment even if you are mistaken.
