Summary/Abstract: Wacław Komarnicki (1891–1954) was an outstanding Polish lawyer and academic. He was a constitutionalist and served in government in the II and III terms of the Second Polish Republic (1918–1939). Educated in Lyviv and at Dopat, Komarnicki taught law at the University of Stefan Batory in Vilnius, where he became a professor, and at the School of Political Science in Warsaw. He was also a member of the Polish Academy of Sciences, a political activist and Minister of Justice in the Polish Government in Exile in London, where he later died. His academic research and personal contribution in relation to the March Constitution of 1921 and its amendment in August 1926, is deserving of particular attention.
