We think the connotation of the term, in its common usage, is that one who "deprives" another of something must be capable of preventing the latter from having access to it. Thus, if a person is without any reasonable, practical means of obtaining the thing withheld, and therefore is insulated from its benefits, he may be considered "deprived."
