Syllabus
An action for false imprisonment cannot be maintained against the State when the imprisonment is in accordance with the judgment or order of a court, unless it appears such judgment or order is void on its face. Where a false imprisonment plaintiff fails to allege facts showing such facial defects in the order on which the plaintiff was imprisoned, he fails to state a claim.
