'''Castle Doctrine''' is a concept dealing with [[self-defense]] in which anyone unlawfully [[trespass]]ing on a [[person]]'s [[property]] (e.c, a home, [[car]], or place of work, their "Castle") gives the owner the right to use deadly force to defend themselves (defending the [[castle]]). It is defined differently in different [[state]]s. The name has its origin in the [[English]] [[common law]] rules protecting a person's home and the phrase "one's home is one's castle." <ref>http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/castle-doctrine.html</ref>
