5. 5 Risk Profile: State Government Programs The protection of sovereign immunity and the birth of the doctrine dates back to the 13th century in the Kingdom of Britain, when the courts decided the King could do no wrong.  Absence of capitalism with State governments. – Not driven by same “risk of loss” for settlement in private industry, governmental entities do not suffer from the same pressures in this regard. State government:  budgets are set  they are not profit-making entities  they can rely on tax dollars  they are not subject to punitive damages

6. 6 Public vs. Private – Sovereign Immunity  In most states, government entities such as public colleges and universities, and cities and counties, are protected by sovereign immunity – which works together with general liability policies.  Sovereign immunity can cover mistakes and accidents as long as they were not done with willful negligence or malice. Pursuant to this protection, the public entity may have caps on the amount to which they can be held liable, or immune from suits.  STRIMA – 4 states with total immunity – 35 states with limited/partial immunity – 4 states with no immunity
