Objectives:
Disciplinary liability, implemented in the form of a peer court judging the inappropriate behavior of members of a given corporation, was born on our continent along with the formation of the rule of law. Regulations relating to state officials in Poland were later created due to the weakness of the native clerical corps in the pre-partition period. The first Polish regulations governing the liability of state officials were created in the years 1918 – 1922. The purpose of the work is to show the birth process of disciplinary provisions regulating the disciplinary liability of title officials.

Material and methods:
The work uses a number of unpublished source materials, which have been subjected to detailed analysis.

Results:
As a result of the conducted research, a number of interesting findings were obtained, which became the basis for the development of the presented text.

Conclusions:
Disciplinary law in Poland was born later than other branches of law. Due to the thinness of the clerical corps in the pre-partition period, the disciplinary provisions in relation to this professional group were not sufficiently separated from the entire legal system. However, there were regulations in relation to several other categories of employees treated in a special way. The process of birth of disciplinary law against the title officials began in 1918.
