Requested Move

The title of this article is misleading and mistakes two distinct legal concepts. "Prosecutorial immunity" refers to the qualified immunity prosecutors receive for official acts (in the same way "judicial immunity" refers to the immunity enjoyed by judges), not a witness' immunity from prosecution. To correct this confusion, I propose moving this article to "Immunity from prosecution" and redirecting "Prosecutorial immunity" to "qualified immunity."-PassionoftheDamon (talk) 00:47, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support move and redirect. "Prosecutorial immunity" is ambiguous at best. "Immunity from prosecution" is clearer. Station1 (talk) 05:59, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
