§. Justifications –Self-defence

In self-preservation
is included self defence.

Self-defence validity
as justification
depends on the necessity
of the act.

Whatsoever the
Judge may inflict
as a punishment is
a justification when

inflicted in self defence.

grounds for exemption
from punishment
but not from giving
compensation.

capable of saving
only one. One pushes
the other off punishment
here would be of no avail.
