Everyone has a constitutionally protected right to protest. As it states in the constitution, to “peacefully assemble.” Lately, I have been seeing some things that made me “dust off” my old torts book from law school and think about the intentional tort of “false imprisonment.” At what point does swarming around a person, car or a house, with pent up passion and demanding people do certain things like “say his name” and getting in peoples faces yelling, at what point does this become a civil wrong against another? A tort? The tort of false imprisonment. Attorney Steve® tackles this important question in this video where he uses California false imprisonment jury instructions to illustrate the point.
