ADMINISTRATIVE LIABILITY OF LEADER OF THE CONGREGATION

The subject of the article is administrative liability of leader of the congregation. The influence of the church on the affairs of the state has decreased, which means that society is becoming secular, one in which the churches separate from the state, but in any case, church exists but does not dominate over the state. So, the responsibility of the church leader must also be separated from religious affairs. The liability of the leader of the congregation should not be considered as religious movement specified in the statutes of the congregation, but as complying of the duties delegated by the state. The research aim is to analyse the duties of the leader of the congregation and the basis of administrative liability, define in which cases the normative regulation provides for administrative liability, offer solutions in the normative regulation where the type of liability is not specified. Propose amendments to the existing regulatory framework. The conclusions of the research work shows that if the administrative liability of the leader of the congregation for incomplete comply or failure of the duties delegated by the state is provided for in the normative regulation, then the existing polity is protected and the relations between the state and the church are more precisely regulated
