[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wouldn’t the castle doctrine have applicability here? [/quote] Maryland does not recognize Castle Doctrine. You have a legal obligation to do anything you are able to, even at risk to your safety/life, to try and escape from an assailant(s) before you are legally permitted to use force - [i]any[/i] force - against them. Basically, in order not to be charged, yuu must be able to prove you were backed into a corner with no means of escape - and then explain how you got into that corner and why you didn't think of a way out. That's Maryland for you. In Florida, the opposite extreme is the case - you don't need to show any attempt at avoiding a conflict, any place. Somewhere in the middle between those two absurd extremes, is sanity. But you're not going to find that in Maryland [/quote]
