imprisonment claim in California

2021(Collins v. County of Los Angeles (1966) 241 Cal.App.2d 451, 455 .) However, to distinguish between claims for false imprisonment and malicious prosecution, our Supreme Court held that a false imprisonment claim ends once legal process begins.

2013(See Collins v. County of Los Angeles (1966) 241 Cal.App.2d 451 .) As there is no dispute as to whether plaintiff is legally incarcerated, we conclude he cannot sustain a false imprisonment claim, even if he was wrongfully housed in administrative segregation for a period of time.

2025However, the case he cites—Abella v. Riverside Unified School District (1976) 65 Cal.App.3d 153—concerned an exemption from the state’s compulsory education requirements (id. at p. 157), not a false imprisonment claim, and is inapposite—as are his citations to In re Gault (1967) 387 U.S. 1 , concerning due process rights, and Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District (1969) 393 U.S. 503 , concerning freedom of expression.

2024On this record, we find that defense counsel deliberately caused the trial court to fail to give the false imprisonment instruction. ( Cooper, supra, at p. 831 .) Defendant contends that the invited error doctrine does not apply because trial counsel’s statement that he was “not requesting” the false imprisonment instruction is not equivalent to expressly asking the trial court to forgo giving the lesser included instruction.

2024Based on these allegations, the complaint plead several causes of action: a false imprisonment claim against Kelly, Veasey, Wing, and LASD; a claim for intentional interference with parent-child relationship against all defendants except the R&M defendants, based on the custody and restraining order rulings of Veasey, which the complaint attributes to the broader conspiracy among all defendants; claims for “publication of private facts” (capitalization, boldface & underscoring omitted) and “intrusion into private matters” (capitalization, boldface 9 The complaint also contains numerous allegat

2021(Asgari v. City of Los Angeles (1997) 15 Cal.4th 744 .) In Asgari, the plaintiff was arrested and remained in prison until his acquittal seven months later.

2021(See Venice Town Council, Inc. v. City of Los Angeles (1996) 47 Cal.App.4th 1547, 1557 .) Even so, Law’s claims are barred.

2016Section 667.61 is not a substantive offense or an enhancement; it is an alternative sentencing scheme that comes into play only if certain triggering circumstances are pled and proved. “[T]he One Strike law does not establish an enhancement, but ‘sets forth an alternative and harsher sentencing scheme for certain enumerated sex crimes’ when a defendant commits one of those crimes under specified circumstances. [Citations.]” (People v. Acosta (2002) 29 Cal.4th 105, 118-119 .) Section 667.61 refers only to kidnapping, not false imprisonment.

2015The fact that the punishment for violating federal laws prohibiting possession and distribution of marijuana met the imprisonment requirement to classify the laws’ violation as “criminal activity” under the money laundering statute was “a point of statutory law--a point not open to dispute.” (People v. Brown, supra, 46 Cal.3d at p. 443 .) The instruction did not take any fact away from the jury; the jury still had to determine whether defendant had made deposits in the amount and within the time period required for money laundering, whether the cash was derived from illegal activity, and wheth

2014(People v. Martinez (1999) 20 Cal.4th 225, 232 ; People v. Robertson (2012) 208 Cal.App.4th 965, 984-985 .) The two elements of the test are related: “[W]hether the victim’s forced movement was merely incidental to the [underlying offense] is necessarily connected to whether it substantially increased the risk to the victim.” (People v. Dominguez (2006) 39 Cal.4th 1141, 1152 .) “[E]ach case must be considered in the context of the totality of its circumstances.” (Ibid.) False imprisonment, in contrast, requires only a finding that a person was unlawfully confined or restrained.

2014To define kidnapping for ransom otherwise would overlook the underlying gravity of the offense with an unwarranted emphasis on the success of the criminal activity.” (People v. Anderson (1979) 97 Cal.App.3d 419, 425 ; see § 209, subd. (a); CALCRIM No. 1202 [obtaining property that is the target of kidnapping for extortion not an element of offense of kidnapping to extort].) Washington also contends the court erred in failing to give a false imprisonment instruction as a lesser included offense of this aggravated kidnapping charge, but offers no argument as to how the jury reasonably could have

2014(People v. Martinez (1999) 20 Cal.4th 225, 232 ; People v. Robertson (2012) 208 Cal.App.4th 965, 984-985 .) The two elements of the test are related: “[W]hether the victim’s forced movement was merely incidental to the [underlying offense] is necessarily connected to whether it substantially increased the risk to the victim.” (People v. Dominguez (2006) 39 Cal.4th 1141, 1152 .) “[E]ach case must be considered in the context of the totality of its circumstances.” (Ibid.) False imprisonment, in contrast, requires only a finding that a person was unlawfully confined or restrained.

2013With the exception of the false imprisonment claim, the demurrer was based on the immunity of section 821.6, which provides: “A public employee is not liable for injury caused by his instituting or prosecuting any judicial or administrative proceeding within the scope of his employment, even if he acts maliciously and without probable cause.” “The immunity conferred by section 821.6 is not limited to peace officers and prosecutors but has been extended to public school officials [citation], heads of administrative departments [citation], social workers [citation], county coroners [citation], a
