immunities of state officials

Immunities of state officials are legal protections that shield them from some legal actions or lawsuits when performing their official duties. These protections help officials make decisions without fear of constant litigation but don’t apply if they act outside their role or violate the law. Essentially, they ensure officials can work independently and with confidence, but accountability remains if they misuse their authority. These immunities vary depending on the jurisdiction and the specific actions involved.
