<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze law enforcement against Notaries who commit embezzlement of entrusted investment funds and to formulate a justice-oriented enforcement model. The problem arises from recurring cases of abuse of trust by Notaries that not only cause financial losses to investors but also reveal a gap between normative legal provisions and their fragmented implementation in practice. Previous studies tend to address notarial liability in a partial manner by separating criminal, civil, and administrative aspects, thereby failing to offer an integrated framework of enforcement. This research employs a normative legal method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, with secondary legal materials analyzed qualitatively through deductive reasoning. The findings demonstrate that embezzlement of entrusted funds by a Notary constitutes aggravated embezzlement when linked to professional authority, reflecting an abuse of public trust that extends beyond ordinary contractual violations. More importantly, the study finds that the core weakness of current law enforcement lies in the lack of integration among criminal sanctions, civil restitution, and administrative supervision, resulting in inadequate protection for investors. The novelty of this research lies in developing a justice-oriented law enforcement model that integrates punitive, restorative, and regulatory mechanisms into a coherent system, ensuring not only punishment but also restitution and preventive supervision. This model provides a more balanced approach to achieving legal certainty, investor protection, and professional accountability in notarial practice.]]>
