In South Sumatra, forest fires have caused losses across various sectors. For example, the fire at PT. Tiesico Cahaya Pertiwi, which was brought to court by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, is a case in point for a forest fire covering an area of 3,480 Ha in Musi Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra in 2019. The first decision was issued by the Jambi “High Court Number 74 / PdtSus-LH / 2025 / PT Jmb on June 26, 2025 which rejected PT Tiesico Cahaya Pertiwis appeal and upheld the decision of the Jambi District Court Number 44 / PdtG / LH / 2024 / PN Jmb, dated May 5, 2025”. The study aims to examine the rules of accountability in the Indonesian legal realm and understand the decision of the Jambi District Court Judge No. 44/Pdt.G/LH/2024/PN Jmb. A normative legal study is conducted from a case-by-case and statutory perspective. The conclusion is that PT. Tiesico Cahaya Pertiwis liability can be justified through liability without fault in all aspects classified as Highly Dangerous Activities. The panel of judges accepted the lawsuit on the grounds that forest fires constitute a “serious threat to the environment” or “cause a large and significant impact on the environment” therefore the Defendant was proven to have been negligent in anticipating the occurrence of forest fires
