Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
If someone had their middle finger very close to my face and I had very little room to pass by to create more space between us, can I legally move their hand away from my face in a nonviolent manner.

If someone is detaining you, against your will and without legal authority, you may use reasonable force to free yourself.
