407.10 False Imprisonment Damages If you find for (defendant), you will not consider the matter of damages. But, if you find for (claimant), you should award (claimant) an amount of money that the greater weight of the evidence shows will fairly and adequately compensate (claimant) for the [loss] [injury] [or] [damage] as the greater weight of the evidence shows was caused by the conduct complained of. If you find for (claimant), you shall consider the following elements of damages: [Elements may be adapted from instruction 406.12 Malicious Prosecution Damages.] If you find for (claimant) but find that no [loss] [injury] [or] [damage] has been proved, you should award (claimant) nominal damages. Nominal damages are damages of an inconsequential amount which are awarded when a wrong has been done but no actual damage is proved.[*] [*See instructions 503.1 and 503.2 for punitive damages.]
