Abstract:
Some North Carolina state and local public servants enjoy immunity from personal liability for torts committed in the course of fulfilling their public duties. Therefore, public policy is better served by protecting certain defendants from liability. This bulletin examines the traditional rules of liability for public servants, traces the evolution of the new rule of individual governmental/sovereign immunity, and proposes a legal framework for approaching public servant immunities.
