What is the test for determining a claim of false imprisonment?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Masny v. Dicecco, 2004 BCHRT 3 (CanLII):

In my view, these matters can only be decided after hearing all the necessary evidence. As stated in Bell v. Sherk and others, 2003 BCHRT 63 at para. 27, “… more than the mere assertion that the other party’s version of events is untrue is required.”
