Explain the difference between Bivens actions and § 1983 actions

What will be an ideal response?


There are differences between Bivens actions and § 1983 actions. One important difference is that individuals acting under color of federal law (as opposed to state law) can be sued in a Bivens suit. This is not true of § 1983 actions. However, Congress may explicitly (Hui) or implicitly (Vance) grant federal employees immunity against Bivens actions.
