Can Civilians Sue ICE Agents?  

When it comes to legal claims against ICE agents and other federal officers, civilians have the option of a tort claim, pushing the federal government to recognize liability on behalf of its employees. Legal doctrines like qualified immunity and other loopholes often interrupt claims, resulting in dismissals. SB 747, also known as the No Kings Act, could clear a legal pathway for civilians to sue ICE agents and other federal agents for injuries, like excessive force, unconstitutional searches and seizures, and more. Consult with an ICE injury in California from BD&J to learn more about filing a claim.
