Judicial immunity

Okay kiddo, so you know how people who work in the government like judges make important decisions about what is right or wrong?

Well, sometimes people don't like the decisions they make and may want to sue them or bring them to court for their decisions. But, a long time ago, people realized that it's important for these judges to make tough decisions without worrying about being sued or punished for it. This is where judicial immunity comes in.

Judicial immunity means that judges are protected from being sued for the decisions they make while doing their job. This protection is given to them so that they can make fair and unbiased decisions without any fear of being punished for it.

Now, this doesn't mean that judges can do whatever they want without any consequences. If a judge breaks the law or does something really wrong, they can still be held accountable for their actions. But, for the most part, judges are protected by judicial immunity so they can continue to make important decisions that affect many people's lives without worrying about being sued all the time.

So, judicial immunity is like a shield that protects judges from being sued for doing their job, but it's important to still hold judges accountable if they do something really wrong.
