The military coups of 1960 and 1980 were important turning points in Turks. In the meantime, the government resigned with the military memorandum of 1971. The subject of this study is the cases opened regarding the crimes committed against the state and the government between 1971 and 1980. The decision records of Bilecik and Tekirdağ High Criminal Courts were examined. It was concluded that the military interventions were not accepted by Turkish society since the relevant cases were opened mostly as a result of the reactions shown to the administration and the management approach of the period. As a result of the scanning of the archives of the High Criminal Courts in Bilecik and Tekirdağ, the decision cards containing the decisions given between 1971 and 1980 were used in a study for the first time and constitute the main source of this article.
