This paper examines the Coroners and Justice Act 2009, which seeks to reform the partial defences to murder, from a feminist perspective. The paper provides information on the background to women in the law, followed by an evaluation of the law before the reform. The development of the defence of provocation is analysed, and the current law is also discussed. The paper concludes by suggesting the ways in which the reform benefits women, suggesting how the courts should move in a gender aware fashion.
