NALA Certified Paralegal Practice Exam

Self-defense is the legally recognized privilege to protect oneself from injury using reasonable force. This means that individuals are allowed to use a reasonable amount of force to defend themselves against an attacker or to prevent harm to themselves. Options A and B do not refer to the use of force specifically for protection of oneself, but rather for protection of others or property. Option D, "None of the above", implies that self-defense is not a legally recognized concept which is incorrect. Therefore, option C, self-defense, is the most accurate answer.
