dc.description.notesThis article provides an in-depth analysis of the Crimes Amendment (Abolition of Defensive Homicide) Act 2014 which had the effect of repealing the Australian state of Victoria's only general 'partial defence' of defensive homicide, and replaced the existing statutory self-defence in murder/manslaughter provisions and general common law self-defence rules with a single test. The abolition of defensive homicide means there is now no general 'partial defence' to accommodate cases falling short of self-defence. The change is likely to mean that some primary victims will find themselves bereft of a defence.en
