Abstract

The Honorary Board of Election Organizers (DKPP) is an election organizing body tasked with handling violations of the code of ethics of election organizers. DKPP is a state institution established by law. As a state institution that organizes elections, DKPP has the authority to examine, call, sanction and decide on violations of the code of ethics of election organizers. This authority is implemented through a judicial process such as in general courts, namely the process of examining reporting witnesses, reported witnesses, expert statements, validation of evidence, and reading of the verdict. The DKPP's decision is final and materially binding. The trial of violations of the code of ethics held by the DKPP and added to having the nature of a final and binding decision makes the DKPP in several judicial body decisions referred to as a quasi public court, while in the Constitutional Court decision the DKPP is interpreted as a single function of organizing the Election together with the KPU and Bawaslu, meaning that the DKPP is an election organizing institution.Based on this, this study formulates the problem formulation, namely how is the position and authority of the DKPP as a state institution that organizes elections that functions as a quasi public court? This research is a normative legal research whose nature is descriptive and from the perspective of its form is a prescriptive research. This research uses a legislative, conceptual, historical, conceptual, and comparative approach. The research results conclude that the DKPP is an election organizer in the form of an auxiliary state organ that is independent. The DKPP has the authority to enforce the code of ethics of election organizers which in character is almost the same as a general court. The DKPP's decision is final and materially binding. Based on this, the DKPP as a state institution that organizes elections can be called quasi ethical court of  public nature.
