Abstract

Non-compliance with final and binding court decisions in civil cases remains a major issue that undermines legal certainty and judicial authority in Indonesia. The absence of strict legal mechanisms against parties who intentionally disregard court rulings has contributed to ineffective enforcement practices. In this context, contempt of court may function as a legal instrument to compel compliance through the imposition of sanctions on disobedient parties. This study aims to analyze the implementation of contempt of court in Singapore regarding compliance with the enforcement of civil court decisions and to examine the urgency of regulating contempt of court within the Indonesian legal system as an effort to address non-compliance with court decisions. This research employs a normative legal research method using statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The study is based on legislation, legal doctrines, judicial practices, and relevant scholarly literature concerning contempt of court. The findings show that the strict application of contempt of court in Singapore has been effective in strengthening compliance with court decisions and maintaining judicial authority. Therefore, regulating and implementing contempt of court in Indonesia is necessary to improve the effectiveness of civil judgment enforcement, uphold legal certainty, and protect the dignity and authority of the judiciary.
