An "actual and imminent threat" refers to a situation where a danger is not just possible but is currently present and likely to cause harm in the near future. This concept is often used in legal contexts, particularly regarding self-defense, where an individual must demonstrate that they faced an immediate threat to their safety. The criteria imply that the threat is not hypothetical or distant; it requires urgency and a real possibility of danger.
Unlawful aggression is defined as an actual physical assault, or at least a threat to inflict real imminent injury, upon a person.

It is present only when the one attacked faces real and immediate threat to one's life.People v. Gabrino
