Stanislav Gross was a Czech lawyer and politician who served as the prime minister of the Czech Republic and leader of the Czech Social Democratic Party from 2004 until 2005 when he resigned as a result of his financial irregularities. He previously served as minister of the Interior in cabinets of Miloš Zeman and Vladimír Špidla from 2000 to 2004. Gross was Member of the Chamber of Deputies (MP) from 1992 to 2004. Gross was student of the Charles University in Prague and later was awarded his law degree by the University of West Bohemia at Plzeň. Criticism from the media and record public dissatisfaction grew into a government crisis. His popularity sank to a record low, and trust in politicians among Czech people was shattered. After elections in 2002, Gross continued as interior minister and became deputy prime minister in the government of Vladimír Špidla.
