Claims against states

Claims against states refer to legal demands made by individuals or entities against a government for compensation due to wrongful actions or omissions. These claims can arise from various situations, such as breaches of contract, violations of property rights, or harm caused by government actions. Generally, sovereign immunity protects states from being sued unless they consent to the legal action or specific laws allow it. When claims are pursued, they can involve complex legal processes, often requiring proof that the government acted unlawfully or failed in its duties.
