Question: 1 / 400

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

It does not apply

People may use force to defend their property

Idaho's stance on the 'Castle Doctrine' is that people do have the right to use force to defend their property. This means that if someone enters your home or property, you are allowed to use necessary force to protect yourself and your property without first attempting to retreat. This is different from the 'Stand Your Ground' law where you are allowed to use lethal force in self-defense without having to retreat first. Option A is incorrect because the Castle Doctrine does apply in Idaho. Option C is incorrect because it mentions the use of lethal force, which is not a requirement for the Castle Doctrine. Option D is incorrect because, as mentioned before, the Castle Doctrine does not require individuals to retreat before using force to defend their property.
