5454 (2) Under the circumstances as the actor reasonably 19

5656 protect would not be justified in using such protective 21
5757 force; 22
5858 (3) The actor was attempting to commit, committing, or 23

9898 believe that the use of such force was necessary to defend 63
9999 against what he or she reasonably believed was the use or 64
100100 imminent use of unlawful force ] There shall be a presumpt ion 65
101101 of reasonableness under this section that the defendant 66
