The regulation in article 128, paragraph 2, paragraph 3, paragraph 4 and paragraph 5 of the Law no. 215/2001, regarding the local public administration, republished, with the subsequent modifications and completions, of the cause for the removal of the patrimonial responsibility of the executive authorities of the local public administration, mayors, presidents of county councils or persons empowered according to article 55, paragraph 8, item 1 and article 99, paragraph 9 of the above mentioned law, for restricted release or approval according to the intended purpose determined in item 2.4 of this present, administrative acts of authority definitively canceled as illegal, violate constitutional norms and the principles of administrative law and civil law.

Only by overthrowing the legal presumption of innocence of the local public administration authorities, according to article 76, paragraph 2 of the Law no. 188/1999, republished, with the subsequent modifications and completions, in conjunction with article 16, paragraph 2 of the Law no. 554/2004, with the subsequent modifications and completions in the case of administrative-patrimonial liability or according to article 84, letter „a” or article 84, letter „c” of the mentioned Law no. 188/1999 corroborated with article 1364 and article 1384 of the Civil Code in the case of civil-patrimonial liability, civil servants may be totally or partially exonerated from the patrimonial liability for the administrative acts of authority adopted or issued by the local public administration authorities in violation of the legal provisions.
