What is Alabama's stance on the 'Castle Doctrine'?

  1. It does not recognize the Castle Doctrine

  2. It allows deadly force in defense of oneself

  3. It only applies outside of one's home

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: It allows deadly force in defense of oneself

Alabama recognizes the 'Castle Doctrine,' which allows individuals to use deadly force in defense of themselves or others within their own home. This legal principle extends to protecting one's home, vehicle, or place of business, providing legal protection to individuals who use force when they believe it is necessary to prevent death, serious physical injury, or a forcible felony. This is why the correct answer is that Alabama allows deadly force in defense of oneself.
