Description

62.110 False Imprisonment; Generally False imprisonment consists in the unlawful detention of another, for any length of time, whereby the person is deprived of personal liberty and freedom. O.C.G.A. §51-7-20 The only essential elements in a suit for false imprisonment are detention of the person of the plaintiff without his/her consent and its unlawfulness. Therefore, if one should detain another without the person's consent and that detention was without the authority of law, the person detained would be entitled to recover. Westberry v. Clanton, 136 Ga. 795(4) (1911) Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Co. v. Wagner, 90 Ga. App. 267, 277 (1954)
