<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the mediation process and its effectiveness in resolving a land ownership dispute concerning the construction of the Tais Religious Court Building in Seluma Regency. The dispute arose from a resident’s claim of ownership over part of the land used for the building. Differences in interests between the resident and the local government led to a conflict requiring a peaceful and effective resolution. This study employed an empirical legal method with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation and were analyzed qualitatively. The findings show that mediation was conducted through deliberation involving the disputing parties with the assistance of a mediator to reach a mutual agreement. Mediation was considered effective because it reduced conflict, accelerated dispute resolution, and produced a solution acceptable to the parties. From a civil-law perspective, mediation constitutes an alternative dispute-resolution mechanism that provides legal certainty while prioritizing the principles of deliberation and consensus.]]>
