Legal Immunity

Legal immunity is a legal protection that prevents certain individuals or entities from being sued or prosecuted under specific circumstances. It grants them immunity from liability, meaning they cannot be held responsible in court for particular actions or decisions. This protection is often granted to government officials, diplomats, or even entire government agencies to enable them to perform their duties without fear of legal repercussions, provided they act within the scope of their authority and in good faith. Legal immunity ensures that essential functions and responsibilities can be carried out effectively without undue legal interference.
