The essay aims to examine the insightful analysis of Nicola Nicolini, a distinguished jurist of the 19th century Neapolitan school, on the so-called administrative guarantee, elaborated in the Procedura penale del Regno delle Due Sicilie, one of his most important works. The institution, which can be considered as the most typical corollary of the Bourbon administrative monarchy, made public officials of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies immune from proceedings against them for offences committed in the exercise of their office, until its eventual dissolution with express royal authorisation. It yielded such poor results in its practical application that Nicolini revised his considerations and called for a reform.
Il saggio si propone di esaminare l’acuta analisi di Nicola Nicolini, illustre giurista della scuola napoletana dell’Ottocento, sulla cosiddetta garanzia amministrativa, elaborata nella Procedura penale del Regno delle Due Sicilie, una delle sue opere più importanti. L’istituto, che si può considerare come il corollario più tipico dellamonarchia amministrativa borbonica, rendeva immuni i funzionari pubblici del Regno delle Due Sicilie dai procedimenti a loro carico per i reati commessi nell’esercizio del loro ufficio, fino al suo eventuale scioglimento con espressa autorizzazione regia. Essa diede pessimi risultati nella sua applicazione pratica, tanto da indurre Nicolini a rivedere nel merito le sue considerazioni e a chiederne una riforma.
