<![CDATA[This research discusses the role of the Constitutional Court (MK) in maintaining the balance of power through an analysis of Constitutional Court Decision No. 90/PUU-XXI/2023 regarding the minimum age requirement for presidential and vice-presidential candidates. The study employs a qualitative approach using the library research method, drawing from legal documents, scholarly literature, and relevant constitutional sources. The findings indicate that the Constitutional Court holds a strategic position as the guardian of the constitution, ensuring the implementation of the checks and balances principle within Indonesia’s constitutional system.
