The article looks at the possibility of civil liability of the Polish Roman Catholic Church to arise based on own fault (Art. 415 of the Civil Code), based on fault of the juridical person’s body (Art. 416 of the Civil Code), based on fault when hiring a priest (Art. 429 of the Civil Code) ) and based on responsibility for employee’s actions (Art. 430 of the Civil Code).
