Can a city employee or elected officials be personally sued from an act arising from a third party contracted by that city

Question

Can a city employee or elected officials be personally sued from an act arising from a third party contracted by that city



Answer

The elected officials and city employee are likely immune. You mention contracts and contracts are limited to claims against the actual parties to the contract. The city employee or official would only execute them in their representative capacity.
