true or falseFalse imprisonment is a tort only if confinement is unjustified.?
You don't give enough information for a factual answer. I am assuming you are talking about being arrested and held by a government agency on unsubstantiated charges? This is very iffy as the government has certain protections afforded it that you or I as normal citizens do not have. Just because a citizen is held by the government on an invalid charge does not guarantee remittance or damages to the injured party.
If you're talking about spies, terrorist and what-not; that is a different story. These folks are not afforded protection under the constitution and can be held indefinitely; kind of like if you were busted in a non-democratic country.
I would have to say false to your question because one can sue any government agency or individual in this country; you didn't say you had to have a viable case.False imprisonment is a tort only if confinement is unjustified.?
Check Prosser's book on Torts.
False. The imprisonment can be justified but still not proper because of prior circumstances of the manner in which the imprisonment occurred.
True, if the confinement is justafied it is not false imprisonement.
Yes, and if someone is unjustly held in prison then they should definately take it to court.
