Under the 10-20-Life law (Statute § 775.087), if a firearm is discharged during the commission of certain felonies, a 20-year mandatory minimum applies. While the law was amended to allow judges more discretion in specific self-defense scenarios, a "warning shot" can still be charged as aggravated assault with a firearm. A skilled attorney is needed to argue for self-defense and seek to avoid these harsh mandatory minimums.
