Unregistered polygamy which occurred prior to the enactment of 1974 Indonesian Marriage Law raises legal problems when inheritance disputes arise. This article mainly analyzes the problem on Case 282/Pdt.G/2020/PA.Bjb alongside with 40/Pdt.G/2020/PTA.Bjm. There are two main questions addressed in this article: (1) how the judges consider the law in determining the judicial confirmation of the marriage, and; (2) implications of the courts’ ruling on the temporal limit of the marriages towards the legal status of the children. The research on this article is done in using doctrinal legal research, using a case approach. The analysis shows that the Court has exceeded the scope of the petition (ultra petita) by setting a temporal boundary on the first marriages. This has direct implications towards the legal status of children born after that temporal limit. Accordingly, it is needed to apply maqashid syariah and progressive legal approach on deciding juridical confirmation cases.

In the Military Criminal Code (KUHPM), the death penalty is still placed as the main punishment, this is regulated in Article 6 letter a point 1, while in the 2023 Criminal Code (KUHP), the death penalty is no longer placed as the main punishment, but rather as a special conditional punishment. Thus, a debate arose regarding the relevance of the death penalty in the Military Criminal Code. In the 2023 Criminal Code, the death penalty is no longer absolute, but can be converted to life imprisonment after a 10-year probationary period. This indicates a shift in the orientation of national criminal law from retributive to rehabilitative. The inconsistency between the KUHPM and the 2023 Criminal Code gave rise to the idea of reviewing the existence of the death penalty as the main punishment in the KUHPM. This study aims to analyze how the concept of the death penalty in the 2023 Criminal Code impacts the military justice system due to the special nature of military criminal law. This study uses normative methods to evaluate the relevance of the death penalty in the Criminal Code (KUHPPM) and the impact of the revised concept of the death penalty in the 2023 Criminal Code on the military criminal justice system. The results show that, despite facing human rights criticism and a more humanistic approach to legal reform, the death penalty in the KUHPM remains highly relevant for safeguarding national defense interests.

The widespread practice of fictitious orders in food delivery services that charge payment to the recipient of the order raises legal issues, particularly regarding the validity of the sales and purchase agreements that occur in these transactions. This practice not only harms the recipient of the order, but also has the potential to create legal uncertainty in the relationship between the seller, the orderer, and the service provider. Therefore, a legal study is needed to assess whether the agreements arising in cases of fictitious orders meet the requirements of a valid agreement according to civil law and how the parties who place the order are liable. This study uses a normative legal method with a statutory, conceptual, and case approach. Legal materials were obtained through literature studies and analyzed descriptively-qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that agreements in cases of fictitious orders can be declared invalid or can be canceled due to the failure to fulfill the elements of the agreement, and the orderer can be held liable for any losses incurred.

In debt arrangements where property ownership certificates are illegally transferred to creditors or other parties as collateral, which is contrary to Law Number 4 of 1996 concerning Lien Rights, the transfer of land rights through a deed of sale and purchase is sometimes used as a form of legal trickery. This study aims to analyze the implementation of Law Number 4 of 1996 concerning Lien Rights in cases of changes in the designation of collateral objects carried out through a Deed of Sale and Purchase based on debt, as well as the legal implications for parties harmed by inaccuracies in individual debt processes involving collateral objects represented by certificates transferred to names related to the Deed of Sale and Purchase. This paper analyzes the legality and application of Law Number 4 of 1996 concerning Lien Rights through normative legal research. The research findings indicate that liens are the only legitimate source of collateral, so the use of a sale and purchase basis for the transfer of land rights in debt agreements is illegal. Decisions 75/Pdt.G/2016/PN.Krg and 46/PDT/2020/PT YKK indicate that issuing certificates to creditors without following mortgage procedures is detrimental to debtors and is considered null and void, thus creating legal risks. This study emphasizes the need to comply with Article 1320 of the Indonesian Criminal Code and the provisions of the Mortgage Law to provide justice and legal protection for all parties involved. Furthermore, to provide law enforcement authority to creditors and ensure clear legal protection for debtors, the certificate must be registered as a Mortgage Right at the Land Office. Consequently, incorporating mortgage rights into debt agreements can reduce legal ambiguity, increase legal clarity, and prevent losses.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Supreme Court Regulation (PERMA) Number 1 of 2016 regarding mediation procedures at the Religious Court of Jambi City from the perspective of effectiveness and justice. The research employs a normative juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. The findings indicate that although the substance of the PERMA is clear and the structural mechanisms are in place, the main challenges lie in legal culture and mediation practices that still need strengthening. A low level of legal culture affects the compliance of the parties involved, resulting in suboptimal mediation outcomes. This study recommends enhancing socialization, improving mediator professionalism, and strengthening legal culture to make mediation more effective and just.

The objective of this research is to analyze the liability of Land Deed Officials (PPAT) concerning mortgage deeds executed prior to the subdivision or separation of the master certificate. In the encumbrance of mortgage rights, it is required that the collateral object be clear, definite, and identifiable both legally and physically through a land title certificate, to ensure balanced protection for both creditors and debtors. The execution of a Deed of Granting Mortgage Rights (APHT) by a PPAT for an object that has not been subdivided or separated from the master certificate may lead to serious legal complications, ranging from the violation of the principle of specialty to the potential nullification of the deed due to non-compliance with formal requirements. This study utilizes a normative legal research method. The first stage involves a normative approach (library research), conducted using primary legal materials and secondary data, including principles, norms, and legal rules established within legislation and other regulations. The second stage applies a case approach analyzing the Denpasar District Court Decision Number 1097/Pdt.G/2020/PN Dps.

Criminal liability is central to assessing whether a person can be sanctioned for their actions. The theft case in Jambi District Court Decision Number 361/Pid.B/2025/PN Jmb illustrates the practical application of this principle, where defendant Heru Prasetyo was found guilty based on the objective and subjective elements of theft as stipulated in Article 362 of the Criminal Code. This research aims to examine criminal liability and the legal principles used by judges in deciding cases, adopting normative legal research methods through statutory and conceptual approaches, as well as examining court doctrine and jurisprudence. The results show that judges consider fault, intent, capacity to be responsible, the purpose of punishment, and the protection of the victim's rights. This decision also reflects an effort to balance substantive justice and the interests of society, so that criminal law functions as an instrument for law enforcement, restoring victims' rights, and creating a sense of security in community life.

The purpose of this research is to determine and analyze the provisions of the burden of proof system for perpetrators of criminal acts of gratification in the Corruption Law. This is to determine and analyze future regulations regarding the burden of proof system for criminal acts of gratification corruption with the above objectives. The research method used is normative juridical, namely the statute approach, the case approach, and the conceptual approach. The research shows that the Corruption Law has not adopted a reverse burden of proof. As explained in the Law, the burden of proof remains on the defendant, but with the application of a balanced and limited burden of proof. Thus, the defendant must prove ownership of assets related to the public prosecutor's charges, not assets derived from the criminal act of corruption. The public prosecutor still requires evidence of receipt of gratification before starting the proof and proof is limited only to values of more than 10 million which must be proven by the public prosecutor first and then proven the opposite by the defendant. However, for values less than 10 million, the burden of proof remains entirely on the public prosecutor.

This study examines the increasing cases of human trafficking carried out through the modus of fake job vacancies in Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to assess the implementation of law enforcement in handling such cases and to evaluate the effectiveness of both preventive and repressive measures taken by the relevant authorities. The study employs a normative juridical method with a statutory and case approach, complemented by interviews with prosecutors to obtain practical insights into enforcement mechanisms. The findings indicate that preventive efforts include public awareness campaigns, the enhancement of digital literacy, and stricter supervision of online job advertisements. Meanwhile, repressive measures are implemented by prosecuting perpetrators under Law Number 21 of 2007 on the Eradication of the Crime of Human Trafficking. However, obstacles remain, particularly in the form of suboptimal interagency coordination and insufficient victim protection. This research concludes that effective law enforcement requires integrated cooperation between the government and society to ensure legal certainty and the fulfillment of victims’ rights.

Bad debt is a common problem in banking practices and has direct implications for the stability of financial institutions and legal certainty in the relationship between banks and debtors. In various credit agreement disputes, debtors often submit force majeure as a reason for the inability to fulfill payment obligations. Legal issues arise when the concept of force majeure in civil law cannot automatically be applied to every condition of economic difficulty or change in circumstances experienced by the debtor. This is the reason why the author chose the title Analysis of Force Majeure as the reason for Bad Debt. Because often the general public does not understand the true meaning of force majeure, and makes force majeure as an act of neglecting obligations. This study aims to analyze the legal position of force majeure in banking credit agreements and examine the limits of its application as a reason for exemption from responsibility for bad debt. This research is a normative legal research with a statutory and conceptual approach, supported by a literature study using primary and tertiary legal materials. The research results show that force majeure can only be used as a basis for exemption from liability if it meets the elements of unforeseen circumstances, is beyond the debtor's control, is unavoidable, and has a direct causal relationship to the failure to fulfill the obligation. Therefore, not every bad debt can be justified based on the force majeure argument
