Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Qualified immunity may well be the most important issue in § 1983 litigation. It is certainly the most important defense, and is frequently asserted as a defense to § 1983 personal-capacity claims for damages.[1] Furthermore, courts decide a high percentage of § 1983 personal-capacity claims for damages in favor of the defendant on the basis of qualified immunity. The Supreme Court holds that qualified immunity is not just immunity from liability, but also “immunity from suit,” that is, from the burdens of having to defend the litigation.[2] |
