This timely and informative course features instruction on the latest guidance obtained from Michigan and federal courts regarding the scope of governmental immunity and qualified immunity. Michigan has provided law enforcement personnel with immunity from lawsuit so long as their actions are not grossly negligent and are “the” proximate cause of the alleged injury. Similarly, federal law provides law enforcement personnel with qualified immunity, which shield law enforcement personnel from tort liability so long as their actions are construed as being “objectively reasonable.” State and federal court decisions routinely contain nuances that impact these immunity standards.
