HB 259 (Duty to Retreat Amendments)

Libertas Institute supports this bill.

This bill clarifies Utah law to state that a person repelling force or threatened force is not required to retreat to safety if doing so is an option.

Libertas Institute supports this bill. A person's right to defend themselves should not be violated merely because a judge or jury believes that a safer alternative may have been available at the time.
