Summary/Abstract: The point of convergence between administrative law and criminal law is increasingly identified as a practical reality, and not a simple issue that arouses the interest of doctrinal debates, especially with regard to the criminal liability of civil servants. In the present paper, the author tries to draw an overall perspective on the criminal liability of the civil servant in the light of the Criminal Code, taking into account that the approach to criminal law is broader than that stated in the Civil Servant Statute or in the new Administrative Code. Thus, the person appointed to a public office who performs his duties and responsibilities in order to achieve the public interest and in compliance with the law will be safe from liability. At the same time, in the exercise of his attributions and responsibilities, the civil servant must always be vigilant so that he does not fall into entanglements that can attract criminal liability.
