- State v. Nargashian-D and Nigohian conspired to get the deceased drunk so he could not meet some girl at a barn and D would go meet her in his place. Nigohian took the deceased to the barn and D also voluntarily went there. Upon his arrival, Nioghian who was older and stronger threatened him with death if he didn’t help kill the deceased. Nioghina grabbed an axe and D held the deceased hands and he also grabbed his throat while Nioghian robbed him

- Standard of provocation if not that a reasonable person would have killed, but would have gotten MAD
- Standard for duress is if a reasonable person would have KILLED, harder to prove
