It has no such law
It allows individuals to defend themselves with no duty to retreat in their homes only
It allows individuals to defend themselves with no duty to retreat in any place they are legally allowed to be
It strictly prohibits the use of any force for self-defense

The correct answer is: It allows individuals to defend themselves with no duty to retreat in any place they are legally allowed to be

Utah allows individuals to defend themselves with no duty to retreat in any place they are legally allowed to be. This concept is commonly known as a "Stand Your Ground" law. This means that individuals in Utah are not required to retreat before using force to defend themselves in any location where they are lawfully present. Option A is incorrect as Utah does have laws related to self-defense. Option B is incorrect because Utah's self-defense laws extend beyond just the individual's home. Option D is incorrect as Utah does not strictly prohibit the use of force for self-defense.
