Abstract

This study aims to analyze the weaknesses of the existing compensation mechanism for victims of wrongful arrest in the criminal justice system and to propose a reform model based on the principle of Parallel Justice (PJ). Although Indonesian law, particularly the Criminal Procedure Code and Government Regulation No. 92/2015, already provides a legal basis for compensation, the mechanism remains petition-based and dependent on victims’ initiative through pre-trial proceedings. Such a passive system creates structural injustice and fails to guarantee effective recovery for victims of state error. The research method used in this study is normative legal research, employing statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The statutory approach is applied to examine the positive law in Indonesia regarding compensation. The conceptual approach is used to analyze and reformulate the theory of compensation by incorporating the PJ framework developed by Susan Herman, which emphasizes proactive victim restoration. The comparative approach reviews practices in other jurisdictions such as Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, and the United States to identify models of automatic compensation that can be adapted into the Indonesian context. The novelty in this research is the application of the Parallel Justice concept—originally designed for crime victims in general—to the context of wrongful arrest caused by state authorities. This adaptation provides a new paradigm in Indonesian criminal procedure by positioning victims of wrongful arrest not merely as claimants but as individuals entitled to automatic state responsibility. Based on the research, it is concluded that adopting the PJ approach can create a more responsive, victim-oriented, and automatic compensation system. Such reform would strengthen the protection of human rights, enhance public trust in the legal system, and ensure that victims of wrongful arrest are restored fairly, quickly, and comprehensively.

Abstract

This research aims to explore and develop an innovative concept of criminal law interpretation in Indonesia through the Rule of Lenity (RoL) approach. The RoL principle, originating from the common law system, emphasizes that ambiguous criminal provisions must be interpreted narrowly and always in favor of the defendant. Within Indonesia’s civil law system, adopting RoL has the potential to strengthen legal certainty, safeguard defendants’ human rights, and reduce the risk of arbitrariness in law enforcement practices. The study employs normative legal research methods, focusing on theoretical foundations of the principle of legality, established doctrines of statutory interpretation, and comparative analysis of RoL application in common law jurisdictions, particularly the United States. The findings suggest that RoL in Indonesia should only serve as a last resort, applied strictly when all existing interpretative methods still leave unresolved ambiguity. This ensures that RoL does not undermine legal predictability while simultaneously upholding fairness in criminal adjudication. The conclusion highlights the necessity of explicitly regulating RoL within Indonesian positive law. Such regulation would provide judges with clearer guidance, reinforce protections for defendants, and contribute to achieving a balanced criminal justice system. Ultimately, the integration of RoL offers a pathway for Indonesia to harmonize its civil law tradition with a principle that enhances justice and prevents potential abuse of prosecutorial and judicial discretion.

Abstract

Digitalization changes transactions that initially had to meet without physical meetings. One example is online social gathering which is the result of this development, where the agreement and implementation of the social gathering is carried out via social media platforms. At the same time, this agreement also creates an agreement, so that online or virtual social gatherings become the basis for its implementation. Even though this transaction has provided convenience, it will also pose risks for participants in the virtual social gathering. This research aims to find the characteristics of online arisan agreements which are based on positive Indonesian legal rules and identify legal protection efforts for online arisan members. The data was analyzed qualitatively after going through the stages of examination, reconstruction and data systematization. The study results indicate online social gathering agreements exhibit a number of distinguishable features. To begin with, these agreements made online can be categorized as anonymous agreements, standard agreements, and reciprocal agreements. This indicates the various forms of online social gathering agreements that exist. Second, the requirements for participating in online social gatherings are usually broadcast via social media, and communication occurs online or virtually, without direct face-to-face meetings. The existing online social gathering agreement is carried out virtually, based on the level of trust that is built between the owner/organizer as well as the participants in the social gathering. Third, from a legal perspective, Agreements related to online social gatherings are regarded as electronic transactions as per the electronic information and transactions law (UU ITE). This indicates that electronic rules apply to this agreement. Fourth, proof of The agreement for the online social gathering can be located using the withdrawal serial number provided by the owner or organizer to the members at the beginning of the event. This is concrete evidence of the agreement that has been made. Apart from that, legal protection for the public, especially online social gathering members, is divided into two. First, preventive legal protection or in other words efforts to prevent legal problems before they occur, which have been regulated in the laws and regulations related to online social gatherings, namely in the Civil Code (KUHPerdata), the ITE Law, and online social gathering agreements. have been made by the parties themselves. This aims to prevent violations and conflicts in online social gathering agreements. Second, Stringent legal safeguarding encompasses penalties, including monetary fines and restitution given in cases of violation of online social gathering agreements. For this reason, legal remedies are available to maintain the security and validity of online social gathering agreements in accordance with Indonesian law.

Abstract

Business competition in the digital era presents new challenges for startups in Indonesia, such as the dominance of large platforms, algorithmic discrimination, and the lack of digital infrastructure. Law Number 5 of 1999 as the legal basis for business competition has not fully accommodated technological developments such as algorithms, big data, and the digital ecosystem. This research analyzes the application of competition regulations to startups in the digital era, focusing on challenges such as market access inequality and the lack of legal education. Additionally, this research explores opportunities such as the use of disruptive technology and collaboration between startups and regulators. With a normative-empirical approach, this research examines the relevance of current regulations and provides strategic recommendations to create a fair and sustainable digital business ecosystem. The research results indicate that revising regulations to be responsive to the digital era is essential to support healthy competition and innovation in the startup sector.

Abstract

Judicial review (PK) is an extraordinary legal effort that allows criminal cases to be reopened even though they already have permanent legal force (res judicata). This mechanism aims to correct judicial errors that can occur due to novum, judge's error, or conflicting decisions. However, in the Indonesian legal system, PK can only be submitted by the convict or his heirs, which has given rise to debate regarding limited access to justice. This study highlights the relevance and implications of these limitations and compares them with legal systems in other countries, such as Germany, which implements the Wiederaufnahme des Verfahrens mechanism in the Strafprozessordnung (StPO). Through comparative analysis, it was found that the Indonesian legal system still has normative ambiguity in determining the limits of judge error and the category of novum that can be used as the basis for a PK. This study proposes a reformulation of the PK concept that is more inclusive, by expanding the subjects who have the right to apply for a PK not only limited to the convict or his heirs, but also other parties who have legal interests. In addition, stricter regulations are needed regarding the limits of judge error and the validity of the novum, as implemented in Article 359 of the German StPO.

Abstract

Marriage in Indonesia is regulated by Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage in conjunction with Law Number 16 of 2019. One form of dissolution of marriage is through divorce decided by the court. This study examines the application of the principle of ne bis in idem in divorce cases, namely the legal principle that prohibits the retrial of the same case that has obtained permanent legal force. This study found differences in academic opinion regarding its application in divorce cases. Some legal experts argue that ne bis in idem applies in divorce cases, while others consider this principle inappropriate to apply considering the dynamics of emotional relationships and the possibility of new legal facts emerging. This study also discusses the regulation of divorce law in Indonesia, both for Muslims and non-Muslims, divorce procedures, and the legal consequences that arise, such as child custody and division of joint property. The findings indicate the need for special regulations, for example through a Circular of the Supreme Court, to provide legal certainty in the application of the principle of ne bis in idem in divorce cases.

Abstract

Pretrial motion in Indonesia, inspired by the principle of habeas corpus, has the authority to test the legality of law enforcement actions, including searches and seizures. However, this mechanism is *post-factum* and limited to formal aspects, such as the completeness of the warrant, without assessing the material requirements that determine the legality of the action. This limitation has the potential to cause injustice, especially in cases of urgent searches and seizures, where officers often act without prior court permission. This study aims to reconstruct the authority of pretrial motion by integrating the Plain View Doctrine (PVD), a doctrine from the common law system that allows the seizure of evidence without a warrant if it meets three requirements: (1) officers are legally present at the location, (2) the evidence is clearly visible (immediately apparent), and (3) there is a probable cause that connects the object to the crime. The research method used is normative juridical with a conceptual and statutory approach. The results of the study indicate that the application of PVD can strengthen the pretrial control function by expanding the scope of testing from merely formal to substantial aspects. In addition, this study proposes the optimization of digital systems such as *E-Berpadu* to accelerate the licensing process in urgent circumstances. Thus, the reconstruction of pretrial authority based on PVD is expected to ensure a balance between the effectiveness of law enforcement and the protection of human rights.

Abstract

Personal data leak cases in Indonesia are becoming an increasingly pressing issue in the digital era. This study aims to analyze the legal responsibility of companies in cases of personal data leaks, identify the main factors causing the incident, and evaluate weaknesses in the existing regulatory and supervisory systems. A normative legal approach is used by reviewing Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection and other related regulations. The results of the study indicate that data leaks are caused by weak security infrastructure, low employee awareness, and lack of compliance with data protection standards. Regulatory disharmony and weak supervision are major obstacles in ensuring company compliance with legal obligations. This study recommends improving data security through advanced technology, regulatory harmonization, strengthening supervisory mechanisms, and educating the public about personal data protection rights. Thus, this study is expected to provide practical and theoretical contributions to the development of a more effective personal data protection system in Indonesia.

Abstract

Pursuant to Article 24 paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia (1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia) it is stated that judicial power is exercised by a Supreme Court and judicial bodies under it within the realm of general courts, religious courts, military courts, state administrative courts and by a Constitutional Court. Based on Article 1 number 8 of Law Number 48 of 2009 Concerning Judicial Power (UU 48/2009) there is a special court that has the authority to examine and hear and decide on certain cases which can only be formed within one of the judicial bodies under the Supreme Court. regulated in laws and regulations. The limitation of judicial institutions as stipulated in Article 24 paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia does not allow for judicial institutions that are not within the scope of the Supreme Court and/or the Constitutional Court. However, there is a judicial institution, namely the Tax Court as stipulated in Article 2 of Law Number 14 of 2002 concerning the Tax Court (UU 14/2002), which is a judicial body that exercises judicial power for taxpayers seeking justice in tax disputes. Regarding the Tax Court, the guidance is carried out by the Supreme Court and the Ministry of Finance. This makes the tax court not completely independent as a judicial institution in general that carries out a judicial function (there is still interference from the executive branch, namely the ministry of finance), plus that the Supreme Court, in order to be able to fully supervise the tax court both technically and administratively, the tax court should be under the judicial institutions under the Supreme Court. This research is a normative juridical research using statutory and conceptual approaches with the aim of finding an ideal arrangement regarding the institutional structure of the tax court in Indonesia
