Summary/Abstract: According to a recent decision (issued on 30 May 2018 ), the Romanian Constitutional Court intervened by resolving a prospected constitutional conflict, occasion which determined mutations in one of the powers of the Head of the State provided by the Romanian Constitution (appointment/revocation of Prosecutors - Article 94 letter c) and Article 133 para. 1 of the Constitution of Romania republished). It is not the only intervention of the Constitutional Court in Romania that configures/reconfigures the institution of the Head of State. In this paper, we intend to address only those decisions issued by the Constitutional Court in the exercise of its powers to resolve the constitutional conflicts between authorities (Article 142 letter e) decisions of the Romanian Constitution, which, in our opinion, have the greatest impact in terms of reconfiguring the position of the President of Romania, and tangentially the reconfiguration even of the type of government and the political regime.
