sovereign immunity : ウィキペディア英語版 | sovereign immunity
Sovereign immunity, or crown immunity, is a legal doctrine by which the sovereign or state cannot commit a legal wrong and is immune from civil suit or criminal prosecution. This principle is commonly expressed by the popular legal maxim "rex non potest peccare," meaning "the king can do no wrong."〔(Herbert Broom, ''A Collection of Legal Maxims, Classified and Illustrated'', 23 (London, A. Maxwell and Son 1845). )〕 In constitutional monarchies the sovereign is the historical origin of the authority which creates the courts. Thus the courts had no power to compel the sovereign to be bound by the courts, as they were created by the sovereign for the protection of his or her subjects. ==By country==
