diplomatic immunity

The general exemption of diplomatic ministers from the operation of local law, the exception being that a minister who is plotting against the security of the host nation may be arrested and sent out of the country.

• A minister’s family shares in diplomatic immunity to a great, though ill-defined, degree. [Cases: Ambassadors and Consuls 3. C.J.S. Ambassadors and Consuls §§ 15–23.]
