Abstract

The Institute for constitutional Ministerial criminal liability in Bulgaria is based on articles 155-159 from the Constitution of the Bulgarian Principality, adopted in 1879. It provides for a specific procedure through which the members of the government to be judged outside of the civil courts. From 1880 to 1923, through this procedure four trials were held. During World War I, The Sofia - Nis line has been handed over for operation to the 7th German Operations Directorate. The author concludes that the contracted Bulgarian-German Agreement is advantageous for the Bulgarian side and that there is no basis for claiming legal responsibility towards the then Minister of Transport V. Koznichki.
