Jeffrey and Kirwan gave expressions for intersection pairings on the reduced space ${{M}_{0\,}}=\,{{\mu }^{-1}}(0)/G$ of a Hamiltonian $G$-space $M$ in terms of multiple residues. In this paper we prove a residue formula for symplectic volumes of reduced spaces of a quasi-Hamiltonian $\text{SU(2)}$-space. The definition of quasi-Hamiltonian $G$-spaces was introduced by Alekseev, Malkin and Meinrenken.
