How will the Legal Battle End in the Public Job: Sight of Jordan Issue

Abstract

This study examined a very important issue within the framework of the public job. Conflict of interest, as an act of corruption, is considered a loose concept. Legal jurisprudence differed in defining its concept, but the salient feature of it is that it constitutes an act of a public job that calls for both disciplinary and criminal responsibility, as it constitutes a two-faced act, a criminal and a disciplinary aspect. It is necessary to define conflict of interest and its types within the framework of the public job and the elements of the crime. We concluded this study with a set of results, the most prominent of which was that the most common and dangerous conflict is the conflict between the public interest and the private interest. This condition is when the employee has a direct or indirect interest that affects the administrative decision-making process or any other administrative act. The article recommends that more details be given to the images of conflict of interests to avoid any legal lapse or loophole, which would result in the establishment of the largest possible criminal and disciplinary confrontation for this.
