Abstract

Land grants constitute a form of transfer of land rights made gratuitously by a grantor to a grantee during the grantor’s lifetime. In principle, a validly executed grant cannot be revoked, except on specific grounds provided by law. This study aims to analyze the legal consequences and legal certainty arising from the revocation of land grants by grantors. This research employs a normative juridical method based on secondary legal materials, comprising primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources. The approaches used include statutory, conceptual, case, and analytical approaches. Legal materials were collected through library research and analyzed qualitatively using legal interpretation. The theoretical framework consists of R. Soeroso’s Theory of Legal Consequences and Gustav Radbruch’s Theory of Legal Certainty. The findings indicate that, pursuant to Article 1666 of the Indonesian Civil Code, a land grant generally cannot be revoked. However, Article 1688 provides limited exceptions based on legally prescribed grounds. Where a grant has been executed through a PPAT deed and registered, resulting in the land certificate being transferred to the grantee, the grantor may not revoke it unilaterally but must seek judicial cancellation. Any cancellation must be based on a court judgment and implemented in accordance with its ruling through legally recognized procedures.
