Judges are immune from civil suits for act on the bench, even if competely illegal, politicians and administrators for acts in the course of their duties. Police, being closer to the plebians, only get qualified immunity, and us bottom feeders are absolutely liable even if wet believed we were following the law.
This is counter to the idea of duty. The higher the duty, the greater the liability. Without liability, duty is a sham. My position is, by way of example, that if a judge knowingly violates the constitution from the bench, that should be deemed a violation of the union, and ergo, treason, and the death penalty should be swiftly employed to deter other judges from doing the same, so on and so forth. The highest duty should entail the highest punishment for violation. This is the Roman way.
