Abstract
This study deals with whether or not a public employee is deprived of public office due to a criminal conviction, so the employee has several duties in accordance with the laws regulating the public job in order to ensure the continuous and regular functioning of public utilities in order to provide services and to achieve the public interest, if the employee violates these duties or if he commits If a criminal act is related to his job or not, he shall be subject to functional (disciplinary) or criminal penalties. Therefore, the general rule is the independence of both punishments one from the other, each of them has its own field of application and a goal that it seeks to reach, but there is an exception to this rule represented in the existence of a reciprocal relationship between them through this relationship that clearly highlights the effect of the criminal judgment on the legal status of the public employee, Since this effect is reciprocal between several laws, namely the Penal Code and the Civil Service Law, as well as the Discipline Law of State and Public Sector Employees, so the legislator tried as much as possible through these laws to clarify that the mutual effect between criminal judgment and disciplinary sanctions, and this is what prompted us to research this the topic.
