Summary/Abstract: Judicial liability, as a form of social liability, has specific features in what concerns the members of the Romanian Diplomatic and Consular Corps following the special statute granted to this professional group. In the following, we will make an analysis of the regulations referring to the judicial liability of the members of the Romanian Diplomatic and Consular Corps provisioned by law no.269/2003 on the status of the Romanian Diplomatic and Consular Corps, underlining the flaws of this law determined by the inaccuracy of the legislator in drafting the provisions regarding the condition for employing this type of liability in diplomatic and consular staff and the sanctions that should be applied, justifying thus the necessity of improving the legal frame in this matter. I have considered as opportune to first formulate some statements on the quality of being a member in the Romanian Diplomatic and Consular Corps, in order to be able to establish exactly the scope of the rules comprised in Law no. 169/2003 on judicial liability.
