Torts: Strict Liability and Nuisance — Test

Question 1 • Business Law

Damien decided to surprise Nell for her birthday. He blindfolded her and put her into a room to wait. Fifteen minutes later, he put her in his car and drove her to an unknown location. He had her wait in the car for another fifteen minutes. He then escorted her from the car into a house, where he took off her blindfold and everyone yelled, "Surprise!" Damien did not falsely imprison Nell.

Answer
A
True
B
False

Explanation

False imprisonment occurs when someone intentionally confines another person without consent and without a reasonable way to leave. Damien kept Nell blindfolded in a room and then in a car, and took her to an unknown location; nothing suggests she consented or could reasonably escape. The birthday surprise does not by itself make the confinement lawful, so the statement that Damien did not falsely imprison her is false.
