Does New Hampshire have a castle doctrine or stand-your-ground law?

  1. Castle doctrine only

  2. Stand-your-ground law only

  3. Both

  4. Neither

The correct answer is: Both

New Hampshire has both a castle doctrine and a stand-your-ground law. The castle doctrine allows individuals to use force, including deadly force, to defend themselves in their homes or any other place they have a legal right to be. On the other hand, the stand-your-ground law permits individuals to use force, also including deadly force, without the duty to retreat first when they believe it is necessary to protect themselves from imminent harm. Having both laws in place gives individuals legal protection in various circumstances where they may need to defend themselves or others.
