Abstract

As a state governed by the rule of law, Indonesia requires an independent judiciary capable of upholding justice objectively and free from external influence. However, the Ronald Tannur case exposes significant shortcomings in the implementation of judicial independence, marked by allegations of bribery and external pressures on the presiding judge. This study critically examines the extent to which judicial independence was maintained in the handling of the case and evaluates its implications for public trust in the legal system. Using a normative juridical approach, the research analyzed several legal frameworks, including Law No. 48 of 2009 on Judicial Power, Law No. 49 of 2009 (Second Amendment to Law No. 2 of 1986 on General Courts), the 2009 Joint Decree of the Supreme Court and the Judicial Commission on the Code of Ethics for Judges, as well as court decisions: Surabaya District Court Decision No. 454/Pid.B/2024/PN.Sby and Supreme Court Cassation Decision No. 1466 K/Pid/2024. The findings indicate that judicial independence in this case was undermined by suspected corruption, socio-political pressure, and inadequate institutional oversight. The initial acquittal at the district court levellater overturned by the Supreme Courtreflects a breach of judicial integrity and fundamental justice. This case underscores the urgent need for stronger judicial oversight mechanisms, ethical reforms, and a firm commitment to the separation of powers in order to uphold the rule of law transparently and equitably. Ultimately, the Ronald Tannur case serves as a crucial turning point in efforts to restore public confidence and reform the Indonesian judicial system. Keywords: Judicial Independence, Judiciary, Supremacy of law.

Abstract

A harmonious and happy marriage is the main goal of marriage. However, in reality, divorce is increasingly common in Indonesia. The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) shows an increase in the divorce rate in recent years. This is a concern for many parties. Lack of communication and understanding between partners is one of the main factors. This research aims to understand the role of judges in helping couples resolve conflicts and reach agreements in the divorce process. Apart from that, this research also examines strategies to increase community access to mediation and counseling services in the divorce process. The research method used is empirical legal research with a socio-legal approach. This research analyzes the law and its practices in society. It is hoped that the research results will provide a deeper understanding of the role of judges in helping to resolve conflicts and reach agreements in the divorce process. It is also hoped that the research findings can provide input for increasing public access to mediation and counseling services in the divorce process.
