I know a couple where the husband gets violent and aggressive in arguments and tries to prevent the wife from leaving the house until he gets what he wants by stealing and hiding her house-keys or wallet or purse or shoes (or all of the above). Is this a crime? Is this legally kidnapping?

Thanks! I guess whether or not a court would determine it to be so is the big question. Do you think they would be likely to do so or not?

Since an annulment legally erases a marriage like it never happened, the woman is not the man's "ex-wife" in a legal sense. But if he uses that term to refer to her in casual conversation, is it slander? If he used that term in published writing, would it be libel? Marriage and annulment...
