Summary

The government may not be sued for any reason unless it specifically authorizes it. However, sometimes it is difficult to determine when a person is acting as an agent of the government and when she or he may be sued as an individual, one not covered by sovereign immunity. Intended for U.S. history and political science students, this eBook contains concise, straightforward summaries, analyzing and explaining groundbreaking court cases on the issue of sovereign immunity.
