CONT

The analysis turns next to the particular challenge posed by cases where the person claiming self-defense is a battered intimate partner. Such cases can generally be divided into two categories. In the first category, the battered partner exercises force during an episode of physical abuse by the batterer. In the other category of cases, the partner uses deadly force against her batterer in the absence of any occurrent abuse, but in fear or anticipation of future renewed attacks.
