Question:
What is unlawful imprisonment in the second degree?
Answer:
As an experienced Buffalo Criminal Lawyer, I often speak to people who were charged with unlawful imprisonment in the second degree.
- New York State considers unlawful imprisonment in the second degree a Class A misdemeanor.
- Unlawfully restraining someone against their will is chargeable as unlawful imprisonment.
- This Class A misdemeanor is a criminal offense, and conviction will cause the offender to have a criminal record.
- Second degree unlawful imprisonment may be punished with as much as a year in jail and/or a one thousand dollar fine.
