Novelty in this research is that the object of the dispute in the BPN Depok area has not involved resolution based on the Principles of Restorative Justice. The research results show that the Depok City BPN has demonstrated significant achievements in resolving land cases, with a level of dispute resolution that exceeds national targets and innovation in conflict resolution approaches.
