Abstract

 This study aims to analyze the impact of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Regulations No.  13/POJK.02/2018, No.  12/POJK.03/2021, and No.  10/POJK.05/2022 on banking participation in technology-enabled lending, in conjunction with the enactment of Law No.  27/2022 on Personal Data Protection and Law No.  4/2023 on the Development and Strengthening of the Financial Sector. The research employs a normative-juridical approach to examine the evolution and implementation of regulatory sandboxes, digital Know – Your – Customer (e-KYC) procedures, and AI-based credit scoring mechanisms. These elements are assessed in terms of their legal foundations and practical implications for credit accessibility, operational efficiency, and financial inclusion. The findings reveal that while these regulatory advancements have significantly improved access to credit and enhanced the efficiency of digital financial services, several challenges remain. These include a rise in non-performing loans, vulnerabilities in data privacy and cybersecurity, opaque interest rate structures, and compliance gaps in anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) frameworks. Addressing these issues requires the development of a risk-based, technology - neutral regulatory framework, increased transparency in algorithmic decision-making, and stronger cross-sector collaboration. Such measures are essential to fostering a robust, secure, and inclusive digital lending ecosystem in Indonesia that balances innovation with consumer protection and systemic stability.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the legal liability for violations of moral and economic rights of songwriters from the perspective of intellectual property law and civil law in Indonesia. Copyright infringements of songs—such as unauthorized use, reproduction, and omission of the songwriter’s name—still frequently occur across various social media platforms, entertainment venues, and commercial activities. This research employs a normative juridical (doctrinal) method with a statutory approach and a case approach. The data sources consist of primary legal materials (Law No. 28 of 2014 on Copyright and the Indonesian Civil Code), secondary legal materials (literature, journals, and court decisions), and tertiary legal materials. The findings indicate that song copyright infringement can be categorized as an unlawful act (onrechtmatige daad) under Article 1365 of the Indonesian Civil Code, which gives rise to obligations for compensation, cessation of infringement, and restoration of the songwriter’s reputation. In its enforcement, the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI) and Collective Management Organizations (LMK) play crucial roles in protecting economic rights and resolving disputes through mediation or civil litigation in the Commercial Court. Thus, this study affirms that intellectual property law and civil law have a synergistic relationship, both serving to provide legal protection, certainty, and justice (rechtszekerheid, gerechtigheid, en doelmatigheid) for songwriters in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research examines and analyzes the concept and regulation of the trademark dilution doctrine, which has long developed in the United States, as a form of legal comparison, as well as the implementation of the dilution doctrine in the substantive examination of trademark registration in Indonesia. The research method used is normative juridical research employing statutory, conceptual, comparative, and case study approaches. This study uses secondary data in the form of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, which are then qualitatively analyzed. Data collection techniques involve literature study by tracing widely published written information. The results of this study show that trademark violations in Indonesia are dominated by imitation marks, thereby requiring legal reform in trademark law through the adoption of the dilution doctrine similar to that of the United States. Article 21 paragraph (1)(c) of the Indonesian Trademark and Geographical Indication Law mandates the application of the dilution doctrine, although it does not explicitly regulate it. This indicates that Indonesia has the potential to implement the dilution doctrine. However, the significant differences between the United States and Indonesia make full implementation of the doctrine difficult. One of the main challenges in implementing the dilution doctrine is the communal character of Indonesian society. When analyzed using Jeremy Bentham’s Utilitarianism Theory, the result shows that implementing the dilution doctrine would produce greater pain for Indonesia. Therefore, adjustments and legal formulations are needed to accommodate the interests of all parties, including clear and detailed regulations that govern dispute resolution and evidentiary standards in court. The implementation of the dilution doctrine in substantive examination also needs to be tightened to reduce future trademark disputes.

Abstract

The main issue in Indonesia's national inheritance law system lies in the lack of recognition of adopted children as legitimate heirs in the absence of a will, as stipulated in Article 832 of the Indonesian Civil Code (KUHPerdata), which limits inheritance rights exclusively to blood relatives. This provision creates significant inequality and discrimination against adopted children, as they are legally excluded from inheritance rights unless granted through a testamentary gift a mechanism that is limited in amount and not automatically applied. This study aims to examine the urgency of reconstructing the national inheritance law system to ensure equal legal protection for adopted children. The research employs a normative legal method, using both normative juridical and conceptual approaches. The findings reveal a legal vacuum (rechtsvacuum) and a juridical gap between existing positive legal norms and the principles of human rights and child protection. The current national inheritance system fails to provide adequate legal recognition of adopted children as part of the family in the context of inheritance. Therefore, a reconstruction of the national inheritance law is necessary one that incorporates the principles of caregiving and child welfare as the basis for recognizing family relationships, rather than relying solely on biological ties. Strategic approaches may include the addition of new norms to the Civil Code or the enactment of a National Inheritance Law that explicitly acknowledges the inheritance rights of adopted children. In addition, such inheritance law reform must be supported by strengthening protective mechanisms through the judicial system and social institutions, ensuring that adopted children can obtain legal certainty, substantive justice, and equal treatment before the law.

Abstract

Indonesia’s juvenile criminal justice system has embraced diversion and restorative justice as foundational principles following the enactment of Law No. 11 of 2012 on the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. This study critically examines the legal frameworks underpinning these principles, explores the policy gaps, and evaluates the implementation challenges that have emerged in practice. Employing a socio-legal qualitative methodology, this paper reviews statutory provisions, policy documents, and empirical research findings on diversion and restorative justice in Indonesia. The results reveal that while Indonesia’s legal reforms align with international standards on juvenile justice, significant inconsistencies persist in the practical application of diversion policies. Key barriers include uneven regional implementation, lack of standardized procedures, insufficient training for law enforcement, and societal resistance rooted in a punitive legal culture. The discussion offers a comprehensive analysis of these challenges and suggests strategic pathways to strengthen the restorative justice framework. The paper concludes by recommending policy reforms that incorporate local wisdom, enhance institutional capacity, and promote community involvement to ensure sustainable and effective juvenile justice practices in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Sale and Purchase Agreement (in Indonesian Version: Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli (PPJB)) is a crucial foundation before the formation of the Akta Jual Beli (AJB). However, in practice, serious obstacles often arise when the seller is unable to be present before the Notary-PPAT. This phenomenon not only hinders administrative processes but also potentially undermines the validity of the deed, increases the risk of breach of contract, and weakens the legal protection that the buyer should receive. In this complex situation, the principle of bona fide (itikad baik) becomes a fundamental pillar that demands honesty, transparency, and compliance with legal obligations from all parties involved. This study uses a doctrinal method to analyze legislation, legal doctrines, and evaluate how court decisions (case studies of Decision Number 28/Pdt/2022/PT SMG, Decision Number 20/Pdt.G/2023/PN.Tgt, and Decision Number 36/PDT/2020/PT.Smg) refer to the principle of bona fide in cases of seller absence in PPJB, and to what extent these decisions can serve as a basis or consideration in choosing dispute resolution mechanisms (litigation, mediation, or arbitration). In-depth analysis shows that judicial bodies consistently emphasize the importance of the principle of bona fide and deed formality. The main results of the analysis indicate that these decisions, by reinforcing the validity of the deed or highlighting violations of good faith, implicitly and explicitly encourage the parties to consider alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation or arbitration as faster, more efficient efforts that potentially maintain good relations, while striving to reach agreements reflecting the principle of bona fide for legal certainty.

Abstract

This article examines the implications of the Constitutional Court Decision No. 26/PUU-XXI/2023 for the Tax Court within Indonesia's judicial system. The decision transfers oversight of the Tax Court from the Ministry of Finance to the Supreme Court, enhancing judicial independence and addressing governance dualism. This study employs a normative legal research methodology to analyze how this ruling fortifies the principles of separation of powers and checks and balances as enshrined in the 1945 Constitution. It highlights the importance of the Tax Court's role in protecting taxpayer rights and ensuring impartiality in tax dispute resolution. The findings underscore the necessity for further reforms to eliminate remaining executive influence and promote a cohesive judicial framework, thereby reinforcing the rule of law and enhancing the credibility of the judiciary in Indonesia.

Abstract

Constitutional Court Decision No. 69/PUU-XIII/2015 has brought about a significant paradigm shift in Indonesian marriage contract law, allowing for the creation of such contracts during the course of a marriage. This change necessitates a shift in the role of notaries from mere document creators to active and responsive legal educators. However, implementation in the city of Pekanbaru shows that the optimization of this role has not been fully achieved, marked by low legal literacy among the public, structural barriers, and the lack of integration between the notarial service system and regulations and technology. The main problem is the passive attitude of Notaries, who only respond to requests without proactively providing legal education. This empirical legal research aims to analyze and formulate a concept for optimizing the role of notaries in the creation of authentic marriage agreements following the Constitutional Court's decision in Pekanbaru. Using a sociological-legal approach with qualitative methods, this research is descriptive-analytical and exploratory in nature. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and focus group discussions, as well as document and literature studies. The research results indicate an increase in the creation of marriage agreement deeds following the Constitutional Court ruling, but the number remains low compared to the total number of marriages. The majority of clients come from highly educated groups and have economic-business motivations. The main challenges include inconsistent technical regulations, insufficient socialization, variations in notarial practices, and ineffective third-party protection mechanisms. As an innovation, this study proposes a model for transforming the role of notaries into a proactive-educational, inter-institutional collaborative, and digitally adaptive role. This model is expected to strengthen the position of notaries as an essential legal profession in protecting marriage law in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the legal and humanitarian implications of the Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement (ETLE) system when applied to emergency vehicles such as ambulances that violate traffic regulations during life-saving missions. The research employed a normative legal method supported by statutory and conceptual approaches, complemented by limited empirical observations. The method analyzed primary legal materials, including traffic legislation and constitutional provisions, and secondary materials such as journal articles on digital law enforcement and algorithmic decision-making. The novelty of this research lies in its identification of structural weaknesses in Indonesia’s automated ticketing system, which fails to differentiate ordinary traffic violations from emergency-based exceptions, resulting in potential conflicts with the constitutional right to life. The findings demonstrate that ETLE operates rigidly because it relies solely on visual camera detection without integration with emergency vehicle databases. This creates legal inconsistency, particularly with Articles 134–135 of the Traffic Law and Article 28A of the Constitution. The research also reveals a technological gap due to the absence of adaptive algorithms, real-time vehicle identification, and human-override mechanisms. Based on these findings, the study concludes that ETLE requires regulatory refinement, technological upgrading, and inter-institutional integration to ensure that automated enforcement remains aligned with principles of justice and humanitarian protection. The study recommends developing an integrated whitelist system, real-time data synchronization with emergency services, and the inclusion of contextual AI-based analysis to prevent the penalization of life-saving actions.

Abstract

The election of village heads is a manifestation of local democracy that affirms the sovereignty of the village people in determining leadership at the most basic level of government. Changes in regulations through Law No. 3 of 2024 which extended the term of office of village heads from six years to eight years, as well as the birth of the Ministry of Home Affairs Circular Letter Number 100.3/4179/SJ, have juridical and sociological implications for the legitimacy of the village head position. One of the crucial issues is the reappointment of village heads who have been entangled in criminal acts, as in the case of the Sekapuk Village Head who was sentenced to five months in prison for embezzlement but was re-inaugurated and received an extension of office. This study uses normative legal methods with legislative and conceptual approaches to examine the suitability of these policies with democratic principles, the principles of clean governance, citizens' political rights, and public accountability. The results of the study show that although the circular provides administrative legal certainty and prevents a vacancy in village leadership, the policy creates a normative conflict between the restoration of the political rights of former convicts and the demands for the integrity of public office. This condition has the potential to reduce public trust in village government and weaken the principle of accountability. Therefore, a more comprehensive policy formulation is needed by including morality and integrity requirements for village heads whose positions are extended so that the principles of democracy and good village governance are guaranteed.
