In the course of the evolution of state liability for damages caused in the exercise of public authority the phenomenon of constitutionalisation can be observed, dating from Polish Constitution of March 1921, which guaranteed the citizens a compensation for damages caused by the wrongful act of state authority. Not until the Polish act of state liability for damages caused by public officials entered into force in 1956, was this constitutional guarantee explicitly expressed in a legal act. The legislator partially took into consideration then the solutions propounded by Witold Czachórski, especially in the draft of a decree, which was published in 1946 in the pages of the academic journal “Państwo i Prawo” as a part of his contribution concentrating on the unification of regulations concerning state liability for damages. One of the most important postulates of Witold Czachórski, which is reflected also in contemporary constitutional and statutory legislation, was implementing a method of regulation based on the civil law system, in which a citizen is an equal party to a legal relation and has a claim against the state being a citizen’s equal before a dispute settlement body.
