CHAPTER 8 DEFENSES
I. DEFENSE OF SELF-DEFENSE
8-50 When Defense Not Available
Self-defense is permitted a person solely because of necessity. Self-defense is not available to a person who (was the aggressor)/(provoked another with the intent to cause the altercation)/(voluntarily entered into mutual combat), no matter how great the danger to personal security became during the altercation unless the right of self-defense is reestablished.
