When the Government is Not Legally Responsible for Injuries or Damages

Under Indiana law (IC 34-13-3-3), there are specific situations where a government agency or employee cannot be held responsible for losses. These exceptions help clarify when and why a government agency cannot be sued for certain losses. They're designed to protect public resources while still requiring government entities to act responsibly, especially where public safety is concerned.
