Summary/Abstract: The legal framework of plagiarism as a crime, finds its systematic place in Roman law. In the objective Bulgarian law, it is regulated by the first Penal Code in 1896. The current legal framework creates ambiguity regarding the application of the administrative provisions of the Academic Staff Development Act and the Penal Code. The article analyzes the provisions of the two normative acts, as well as the canceled Law on Scientific Degrees and Scientific Titles. The relevant procedures, the competence of the bodies and the consequences of the issued acts are considered. The conclusions justifiably raise the question: is this alternative acceptable?
