I don't recall any court saying what did and didn't apply.
Gun Control activists decided to attack Stand Your Ground under the premise that Zimmerman chased down Martin to shoot him.
Now that the truth seems to be coming out and pointing the other direction. Zimmerman claimed to be going out to get a house number (plausible... so few houses keep the ones on the house lit, more and more subdivisions have grouped mailboxes vs. individual mailboxes at each house, and many HOA's don't allow house numbers to be painted on the curb lest the neighbors be offended by some paint that doesn't match the approved color palette)
It's growing more and more likely that SYG does apply. The 911 tapes show Zimmerman calling for help 14 times. Martin's father says it's not his son's voice on the tapes. Martin's autopsy indicates a gunshot from inches away. Zimmerman's injuries were not trivial. Martin's (aside from the gunshot) were.
Self defense. This is exactly what SYG was created to cover.
Where's Al Sharpton now? Why no comments about Martin's autopsy showing THC in his blood? Were the Skittles and tea for his little brother, or was it just preparing for the munchies?....
I like how the HuffNPuff starts talking conspiracy about how certain facts are being leaked by the defense.
Why no comment on all the accusations levied during the "public debate" which was based entirely on emotions?
The Racial Malfeasance committed by Sharpton, Jackson, and supported by several members of Congress and the White House is coming home to roost....

This should have never been an issue about race. Period. It's a tragic event, but despite all the hype, it all comes down to a 17 year old kid deciding to get into it with someone who was armed.
