LegislationIn California, legislation authorizes a person to use deadly force to defend against death or serious injury if they believe they are in imminent peril.[5] Raymond L. Middleton, Warden v. Sally Marie McNeil is a California case that espouses this doctrine.[6] The 2012 Florida Statutes lay measurable conditions to determine if the "fear of imminent peril" is reasonable under the law.[7] Both the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and the International Law Commission (ILC) have recognized the profound motivations of one's lawful fear of imminent peril and have adopted measures to define consequences, of self-defense against such peril, as reasonable.[8] PerilPeril is synonymous with danger[9] but lacks the suddenness of the "imminent" qualifier. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulates safety standards for workplaces in the United States. Its charter obligation is to identify dangerous conditions in the workplace with a potential for sudden peril, and to require employers to actively mitigate the risks.[10] See also
