- Q. What are the legal repercussions of a self-defense fight in Los Angeles, CA?
- A: You have a right to use "reasonable" force to defend yourself. Even deadly force may be reasonable (and therefore legally defensible) if deadly force was "reasonable". However, once your force becomes "unreasonable" then you become the aggressor, which WILL subject you to criminal prosecution. An example would be if the assailant is defenseless, and you to kick his ass... you have changed from the victim to the aggressor. So... as long as you believed your conduct was "reasonably" necessary to protect yourself from bodily injury (or death)... you should be ok. You don't know when an attacker is going to regain power and get up off the ground and kick ... Read More
