NC Deadly force laws

Terror · November 4th, 2009, 08:14 PM

I am trying to find a link to the NC deadly force laws. I used to have one but lost it :( I also heard that NC has a law stating that you can't be sued if the shoot is deemed legal? I am trying to find that law also. Any help would be apreciated.

No castle domain law in NC. Yet.

No in North Carolina we do not have a castle doctrine
so even if the shoot were deemed legal the perps family can still sue you in civil court...............
That was in the first video in your concealed weapons class and I believe it was on the test also.

Bigg daddy is 90% correct, although there is no castle doctrine there are laws to protect you in your house depending on the circumstances... and yes that should of talked about that during your CWP class... OK he was 95% correct

Did you get a red book when you took your CHP course? If so it has all the answers to your questions.

Terror · November 5th, 2009, 08:09 AM

The course I took doesnt give the red book:( I would like to get one. All I got to keep was a nra guide to basic pistol shooting. I knew about the castle law and NC not really having one. I was looking for a provision about the badguys family being able to sue me after the fact. In a blog I was reading the person stated that while nc didnt have a castle doctrine it did have a law blocking the civil suit. I didnt remember that from my class and it is why I asked.

PS if somebody can tell me where I can get the "red book" I would love a link please.

We need to get onto the legislature when they get into the short session. The Castle Doctrine bill is languishing in Deborah Ross's Committee. It includes the immunity from civil suit. It needs to be pushed through, she is single handedly holding this up. Short blurb from NRA.
