even though immune from
court suits, they could face
disciplinary action or removal
from office if they used their
privilege irresponsibly.
Rogers said that all officials
"should act with an awareness
of the vital importance of
avoiding unnecessary injury
to any person."
Prompted on Decisions
Rogers' memo was prompt
ed by two recent Supreme
Court decisions holding that
even lesser government of
ficials cannot be sued for dam
age for defamatory state
ments they make in the course
of their official duties.
, The "absolute .privilege"
previously has extended only
to cabinet officers. The justice
department has long contend
ed that subordinate officials
of the executive branch should
enjoy the same privilege.
The high court agreed with
the department on June 29 in
two cases decided by 5 to' 4
and 6 to 3 votes.
Rogers told federal officials
that his memo' was designed
to spell out the limitations of
the privilege and to set forth
the principles that should
guide them in exercising their

In Course of Duties
He reminded, them that the
privilege "applies only to
statements made in the course
of the exercise of the duties"
of their office. He said it "does
not apply to defamatory state
ments unrelated to official
duties."
He conceded that there may
be a close question whether
a contemplated defamatory
statement is in line with of
ficial duties. He said that no
official should assume, there
fore, "these decisions give him
full and complete protection
against actions for defama
tion." He- said that officials con
templating a defamatory state
ment should take care "that
the statement clearly pertains
to the duties of the office and
the official involved should
himself be ' satisfied that he
has the authority to issue it.-
Even when the statement is
clearly privileged, Rogers
said, officials "should act with
an awareness of the vital im
portance of avoiding unneces
sary injury to any person."
He added that such officials
"should be keenly aware of
the heavy responsibility which
falls on him."
Duty io Act "With Care
He reminded federal em
ployees that Justice John M.
Harlan in speaking, for the
high court on the issue said
that the privilege "is not a
badge or emolument of exalt
ed office, but an expression
of a policy designed to aid in
the effective functioning of
government."
' He said this imposes on all
officials " a duty to act with
care and restraint for what
may be at stake is the reputa
tion' of a person without legal
resource" to the courts for
damages.
