1. "Relative" means a parent or stepparent, ancestor, descendant, sibling, uncle or
aunt, including an adoptive relative of the same degree through marriage or adoption, or
a spouse.

2. "Restrain" means to restrict a person's movements without consent, without legal
authority, and in a manner which interferes substantially with such person's liberty, by

person. Restraint is without consent if it is accomplished by:

than eighteen years old or an incompetent person and the victim's lawful custodian has
not acquiesced in the movement or confinement.
