Summary/Abstract: The author indicates that the legal structure of the Polish immunity regulations excludes the possibility of adopting a resolution by the Sejm on giving consent to bring several deputies to responsibility. In each individual case, the Sejm should consider a separate motion and adopt a separate resolution. Referring to the principle of discontinuity, the author concludes that regarding the two former Deputies, new motions for consent to bring them to a civil law liability should be submitted, while in the case of a Deputy holding a mandate also in the 9th term, the proceedings on the motion concerning him should be continued.
