Navigation Bill would modify ‘stand your ground’ law
Rep. Michele Rayner
A bill that would amend Florida’s Stand Your Ground doctrine has been filed in the Florida House.
Rep. Michele Rayner, D-St. Petersburg, has introduced HB 73 which reimposes the duty to retreat if possible before a person uses deadly force to defend themselves. She said it was both an attempt to reverse and modify the Stand Your Ground provisions in F.S. Chap. 776.
