Summary/Abstract: The Author concludes that the RulesDeputies’ and Immunity Affairs Committee should not continue to examine applicationrequest of the subsidiary prosecutor after the court of appeal has finally dismissed thecriminal proceedings. It should be assumed that revoking of a valid procedural decisionterminating these proceedings will give rise to the necessity of submitting a new applicationfor waiver of immunity. An entity that submitted an application for waiver of immunitymay freely dispose of it until the Sejm adopts a resolution regarding the consentto bring the Deputy to criminal accountability or until the Deputy’s submission of thestatement referred to in Article 105 para. 4 of the Constitution.
