Question

Can I sue a public official in Virginia for misinterpreting a licensure-regulation? I believe that they did not follow the rules of plain and literal English, and required one more college-course to be included in the total required, than what they should have. I wrote a letter to these public officials, explaining in detail how to properly interpret the law. They wrote back, simply saying that they thought that their interpretation was correct, but completely neglecting to explain why.



Answer

Probably not as if the person is a "public official" as you say, they will have immunity for simple negligence.
