Does New Hampshire have a 'stand your ground' law in place?

Yes
No
Only within one's home
Only outside of one's home

The correct answer is: Yes

New Hampshire does indeed have a "stand your ground" law in place. This means that an individual is legally allowed to use deadly force to defend themselves if they believe it is necessary to avoid serious bodily harm or death. They are not required to retreat first. The other options are incorrect because they are limiting the scope of the law to either within one's home or only outside of one's home. In reality, the law applies in any place where the individual has a legal right to be. Additionally, these options do not include the key phrase "serious bodily harm or death" which is a critical component of the law.
