The Constitutional Court is one of the judicial authorities, alongside the Supreme Court as referred to in Article 24 paragraphs (1) and (2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. However, the problem that arises is when the credibility of Constitutional Court judges, who are supposed to guarantee substantive justice, is tarnished by acts of corruption and irresponsibility. This raises questions about how to supervise them, because the interests and subjectivity of judges are also reflected in the decisions they make, which can ultimately result in unfair and incorrect decisions. Furthermore, the controversy surrounding Constitutional Court Decision Number 90/PUU-XXI/2023 has sparked debate about the judges' bias in making decisions related to political interests. The expansion of authority without a credible and reliable oversight process and institution has proven to be a problem in the Constitutional Court with the newly formed Honorary Council. This study uses a normative legal method with reference to applicable laws and regulations, cases, and concepts. The purpose of this study is to determine the independence of Constitutional Court judges Constitutional Court judges amid political polarity and to examine oversight of Constitutional Court judges, especially given the final and binding nature of their decisions. In addition, to date, the Constitutional Court is not a state institution that has an oversight body. We must not allow decisions made to undermine the democratic order and allow room for intervention in the work of Constitutional Court judges as guardians of the constitution.
