Abstract: The Institute for constitutional Ministerial criminal liability in Bulgaria is based on article 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. In this case, we focus on the work of the Second State Court (1910 - 1914), in particular - criminal offenses in construction activities committed in Sofia Municipality. The author makes a conclusion different from that of the State prosecution - namely there are no legal grounds for the former minister of public buildings, roads and communications Iv. Halachev to be held accountable.
