Which one of the following is an example of when the use of deadly force may be justified in North Carolina?

  1. To prevent a violent felony

  2. In self-defense when facing imminent death or serious bodily harm

  3. To protect personal property

  4. A and B

The correct answer is: A and B

In North Carolina, the use of deadly force can be justified only in situations of self-defense when facing imminent death or serious bodily harm as well as in preventing a violent felony. Using deadly force to protect personal property is not considered a valid reason and is therefore incorrect.
