False imprisonment (criminal)
The rule
False imprisonment is the unlawful confinement of another person without consent and without legal authority. No asportation or concealment is required; any bounded restraint of the victim's freedom of movement suffices.
In plain English
The lesser included offense of kidnapping. Locking someone in a room, even briefly, without lawful authority is enough.
