Original Note:
The criteria for self defense in New York(as well as the rest of the US) require that you have a "reasonable belief" that the amount of force you use is necessary to stop the force of another. This does not apply to someone who is restrained, like in a choke hold. https://www.tilemlawfirm.com/new-york-self-defense.html https://www.tilemlawfirm.com/new-york-self-defense-the-reasonableness-standard-and-new-yorks.html?_gl=1*18u7ekn*_ga*bmpaUDFTaUhfUjctZEpCanhtYjRPazRxQWx4Ql9Sd0JZdW9zNTkxSXNuMi1NT0FQaEZXOWd1ajc1bEc1QVVGSw..
