In case number 17/Pdt.PA/2024/PA.Bjl, the judge decided to grant the request of Petitioner I and Petitioner II. This was based on evidence submitted to the Binjai Religious Court. One of the reasons for granting the dispensation was that Petitioner I and Petitioner II’s child had been living together like husband and wife and had been pregnant for three months. Both parents agreed and approved of the marriage. Marriage dispensation for minors is regulated in Article 7, paragraphs 1 and 2 of Law Number 16 of 2019. Dispensation, as referred to in Law Number 16 of 2019, means a deviation from the minimum marriage age limit set by the law, which is at least 19 (nineteen) years for both men and women.
