How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that accused's fear for his life was without foundation because victim made no overt act at the time of the shooting
• where defendant shot victim after victim yelled “stop, you b------, I’ll kill you now,” the most the evidence showed was a present threat to take defendant’s life, not an overt act justifying a plea of self-defense
