Abstract

After the enactment of Law Number 22 of 1999 concerning Regional Government, currently the authority of the sub-district head as a regional head has previously been attributive and is now delegative. the aim of this research is about how is the legality of the sub-district head’s authority to release land rights for private interests. The research method used is normative juridical. The research results showed that the legality of the sub-district head’s authority to release land rights for private interests is not fulfilled. This is because there is not a single clause that states that the sub-district head can sign documents releasing land rights after the enactment of Law Number 22 of 1999 concerning Regional Government, which currently has the authority of the sub-district head as a regional head from previously being attributive and now being delegative, so that the Letter of Relinquishment of Land Rights made and signed by the District Head regarding the location of the land in question, cannot be used as a formal requirement for registration of land rights at the Land Office. Based on the applicable legal provisions, the deed of releasing land rights for private purposes should be made by a Notary. An authentic deed provides more legal certainty so as to cause justice for the party who relinquishes its rights/owner as well as for the next prospective applicant. Statement of Relinquishment of Land Rights signed by the Subdistrict of Cileungsi declared invalid / null and void.

Abstract

Agrarian disputes remain pervasive and complex, frequently involving violations of land rights, land grabbing, and overlapping claims. Such disputes often span civil, administrative, and even criminal dimensions, resulting in fragmented litigation before the General Courts and the State Administrative Courts. This fragmented adjudication has produced inconsistent and conflicting judicial decisions, thereby undermining legal certainty and justice in the land sector. These conditions underscore the urgency of establishing a specialized agrarian court with a clear institutional and procedural framework. This study aims to formulate a conceptual model of an agrarian court and to propose its future institutional mechanism in order to ensure legal certainty in the resolution of agrarian disputes. From the perspective of Islamic law, land ownership constitutes a protected right (ḥifẓ al-māl) that necessitates an effective and just dispute-resolution mechanism. This research employs a normative legal methodology using statutory, case, comparative, and conceptual approaches, supported by primary, secondary, and non-legal materials. The findings propose the Agrarian Court Concept based on the “3Ps” framework—Position, Procedure, and Professionalism—which emphasizes institutional clarity, specialized procedural rules, and competent adjudicators. This model is designed to prevent future disputes, harmonize judicial decisions, and resolve agrarian conflicts in a manner that promotes legal certainty, justice, and the broader objectives of law, including the principle of enjoining good and preventing harm.
