This study uses a normative-legal method with a case study approach to the Constitutional Court's decision. The results of the analysis show that the Constitutional Court Decision Number 313/PHPU.BUP-XXIII/2025 has significant legal implications, both for the disqualified candidate pairs and for the implementation of subsequent Pilkada in North Barito Regency.
