Abstract An essential dimension of the lawful state is represented by the consecration and guarantesing of the
fundamental rights and liberties, the ensuring ofthe optimum conditions for ther exereising. The state has the negative
‘obligation to resrain from any arbitrary or excessive requement that may restrictor condition the exercise of the
constitutional right. In order tobe legitimate and eonstittional, any restriction ofthe exercise ofthe fundamental rights
and liberties through the measures prescribed by the state's authorities, needs to have the character of exemption, not to
affect the substance of the law and to fulfil all conditions stipulated by item 53 of the constitution. In elation to these
premises we analyze in this study the constitutional institation of restraining some rights’ exercising andthe relevant
aspects of jurisprudence. The observance of the principle of proportionality is one of the constitutional requirements in
order that such a restrictive measure be legitimate. The main particularities ofthe principle of proportionality applied in
the matter of restraining some rights” exercising are analyzed with reference tothe jurisprudence ofthe Constitutional
Court and the European Court of Human’s Rights
