Q

Justified force Doctrine:

A

The Justified Force Doctrine has two specific criteria:

1) Escalation:
a) The level of control used by police members is selected in response to the level of resistance offered by the person. This means that it is the person who will dictate how much force will be needed to control their resistance.

2) Preclusion:
b) Police members may “rule out” lower control options if they believe the selected level of force would be ineffective, or inapropriate, for the circumstances. This means that it is not necessary to progress from one level of control to the next until control is gained.
