WELLS, MICHAEL L.
- Abstract
The article offers information on the history, purpose and significance of the constitutional tort law in the vindication of plaintiffs' rights. It presents comparison of official immunity with vindication of rights with reference to decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court in cases including Camreta v. Greene, Pearson v. Callahan, and Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics, in which the Court interpreted the federal officers practices under the implied cause of actions.
