civil immunity

Civil immunity is a legal protection that shields individuals or organizations from being sued in civil court for certain actions they take. It acknowledges that some actions, like those performed by government officials or in specific situations, are protected so that people can perform their duties without fear of constant lawsuits. This immunity doesn’t mean they can do anything without consequence; it limits civil liability when acting within their official roles or under specific legal protections, promoting the public interest and effective functioning of institutions.
