This essay rediscovers the figure of Constituent Father Francesco Maria Dominedò, analyzing his lucid contribution to the drafting of the Italian Constitution. Through an examination of the text of Article 19-bis («The law provides for the future: it has no retroactive effect on the rights in question»), which he drafted, the paper honors his memory and profound legal legacy, highlighting the extraordinary relevance of his thought within the contemporary public law context.
