Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Re: False imprisonment

False imprisonment can be a felony and can be based on even a brief period of imprisonment - a couple of minutes would be sufficient to find your son guilty. If your son has agreed to plead to assault and battery, the false imprisonment charge should be dropped as part of the plea bargaining process. The fact that he has no prior record should be very helpful to him and the prosecution and the judge will most certainly take it into account. He might be able to avoid jail time altogether depending upon factors such as the courthouse where he is being prosecuted, the character of the DA and, perhaps most importantly, the quality and dedication of his lawyer willing to do the necessary work to fight for him.
