Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following is true about the use of deadly force for self-defense in Michigan?

It is always justified if you feel threatened

It can only be used if retreating is not an option

It is allowed in defense of property

It must be a reasonable response to an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm

Using deadly force for self-defense in Michigan is a serious matter and is not always justified. Option A is incorrect as it implies that deadly force can be used in any situation when feeling threatened, which is not true. Option B is incorrect as it suggests that retreat is never an option, but in Michigan, individuals are required to exhaust all other reasonable options before using deadly force in self-defense. Option C is incorrect as Michigan law only allows the use of deadly force in self-defense when there is an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm to oneself or another person. This makes Option D the correct answer as it accurately reflects the legal requirements for using deadly force in self-defense in Michigan.
