Qualified immunity is a legal doctrine in the United States that protects government officials, including law enforcement officers, from being held personally liable for constitutional violations unless they violated a "clearly established" constitutional right. This means that even if a government official's actions are found to be unconstitutional, they may still be immune from liability in civil suits if the right in question was not clearly established at the time of their actions.
