Abstract

Notaries public as public officials hold the attributive authority to issue authentic deeds, but this instrument is vulnerable to manipulation due to the disregard of the principle of prudence. A crucial problem arises due to the absence of uniform dogmatic parameters in distinguishing professional administrative negligence from the criminal intent of notaries public in the criminal act of falsification. This has implications for massive civil losses for third parties and triggers a disparity in judicial decisions. This research aims to evaluate the distinction between administrative negligence and conditional intent and to reconstruct the application of the doctrine of participation to public officials by examining the legal considerations in Supreme Court Decision Number 933 K/Pid/2023. Utilizing a normative legal research method through the statute, case, and conceptual approaches, legal materials are analyzed using a juridical qualitative method with deductive syllogism reasoning. The examination results prove that the active action of a notary public ignoring a clear written warning regarding defective documents and inserting them into the minutiae of the deed converts negligence into conditional intent that legally fulfills the elements of Article 264 section (1) of the Penal Code. This action fulfills the requirement of joint physical implementation in the crime of falsifying an authentic letter. Such action degrades the perfect evidentiary value of the deed into an underhanded act, resulting in civil losses amounting to billions of rupiahs. The cassation decision absolutely establishes the Defendant’s criminal liability, simultaneously voiding the legal protection right of the Notary Honorary Council. This research concludes that the notarial mandate does not provide immunity against structural crimes. Therefore, it is recommended that the Ministry of Law of the Republic of Indonesia reform the supervision regulation to revoke professional protection at the initial investigation stage if an active action is proven, and to establish this decision as established jurisprudence to restore the legal certainty of evidentiary instruments in Indonesia.

Abstract

The transfer of land rights through a grant instrument is absolutely limited to a maximum of one-third of the estate to protect the heirs’ legitime (legitieme portie). The violation of this material limitation strongly correlates with the negligence of Land Deed Officials and culminates in judicial disputes, as reflected in the jurisdictional anomaly between the Lumajang Religious Court Decision and the Surabaya High Religious Court Decision. This research aims to analyze the construction of the public official’s juridical liability and examine the degradation of the deed’s evidentiary value due to material defects. Through normative legal research employing case, statute, conceptual, and philosophical approaches, this study finds that the Land Deed Official’s failure to apply the prudential principle is qualified as negligence, implicating the emergence of administrative, civil, and ethical liability. Furthermore, exceeding the grant limit renders the legal act null and void, thereby degrading the deed’s evidentiary value to a private deed and nullifying its validity in state administrative affairs. However, the appellate court decision was rigidly bound by procedural formalism, refusing to adjudicate the case (déni de justice) on grounds of administrative jurisdiction. As a legal prescription, the religious court should annul the material act of the grant to revert the object into the undivided whole estate (boedel waris). This object’s status serves as a basis for requesting restoration to the original state (restitutio in integrum) at the Land Office. Supreme Court intervention through jurisprudence is required to align administrative certainty with the value of justice in wealth preservation (hifz al-mal).

Abstract

The electronic licensing transformation through the OSS system in Indonesia faces administrative dysfunction caused by the collision of institutional sectoralism and regional autonomy. This contradicts the governance efficiency of the MalaysiaBiz ecosystem in Malaysia, which operates more adaptively. This research aims to compare the electronic licensing regulatory framework in both countries and formulate a digital administrative governance reconstruction strategy in Indonesia. Employing a normative legal method with statute, comparative, historical, and conceptual approaches, this study examines primary legal materials comprising Law Number 6 of 2023 and the Companies Commission of Malaysia Act 2001. The research results indicate that Indonesia’s licensing architecture rests upon a rigid rule-based approach with ex-ante supervision. Conversely, Malaysia’s efficiency is based on a precise separation between centralized entity registration and local licensing authorities, supported by a strict ex-post compliance audit system. Addressing this gap, this research recommends the implementation of a hybrid regulatory approach for Indonesia’s licensing governance. In the upstream phase, reduce authority fragmentation and regional autonomy impediments by applying the deemed approval instrument. In the downstream phase, this policy must be counterbalanced by the establishment of a cross-authority sanction ecosystem between the OSS management and the Ministry of Law to execute the striking off the register sanction for spatial planning violating corporations. This hybrid approach, contingent on equalizing digital infrastructure, is expected to uphold the supremacy of the legal certainty principle while enhancing Indonesia’s investment competitiveness in the ASEAN economic integration era.

Abstract

Pretrial proceedings were designed as an instrument of judicial oversight to protect human rights from the arbitrariness of law enforcement authorities. Nevertheless, this philosophical expectation is contradicted by the reality of procedural malfunctions arising from legal loopholes in application abatement provisions. This research aims to examine the respondent’s power over case transfers critically and to formulate a norm reconstruction design for time limitations. This type of research is normative legal research that integrates the statutory, conceptual, case, and comparative approaches. Syllogistic analysis juxtaposes the ideal norms of justice with empirical findings from case studies of various court decisions. The research results show that the absence of a binding time limit has led to hasty case transfers by state instruments to evade judicial scrutiny. By overcoming this state of emergency, this research offers a novel, definitive time-limit protection mechanism design. For detained suspects, the validity of a case transfer is limited to 21 days from the date of the application’s registration. Conversely, for undetained suspects, the abatement provision is eliminated, subject to the prerequisite of physical presence at the hearing. Ultimately, the separation of time limits based on detention status constitutes the highest realization of substantive equality, dismantling state domination over the individual. This research recommends that the Supreme Court revoke the relevant administrative guidelines and urges lawmakers to incorporate this differentiation scheme into the renewal of the national criminal procedure law.

Abstract

Futures investment fraud has evolved from a conventional economic offense into a systemic financial crisis exploiting the public’s psychological vulnerabilities and absence of digital literacy. This research aims to synthesize the criminological anatomy of these crimes, unveil social engineering tactics within cyber ecosystems, and formulate adaptive legal policy prescriptions to restore victims’ rights. Utilizing a socio-legal research design based on a literature review, the secondary data corpus is analyzed qualitatively by integrating a statute approach and a conceptual approach toward positive law instruments and reputable international journal literature. The research results prove that crime syndicates exploit white-collar anomic pressure through the creation of multi-level recruitment structures, which are subsequently amplified via cultural pseudo-legitimacy and algorithmic manipulation. These exploitation tactics are sustained by information asymmetry and jurisdictional uncertainty within financial supervisory institutions, which subsequently generates a silence cycle among victims due to the impediment of transnational law enforcement by law enforcement agencies. Halting the continuous cycle of these fictitious investment crimes necessitates a sentencing paradigm shift toward the optimization of asset recovery instruments through the application of money laundering criminal offense regulations. These repressive efforts must be synergistically integrated with mutual legal assistance instruments and the enforcement of anti-fraud firewalls at the financial service sector corporate level.

Abstract

The fulfillment of the right to education for adjudicated juveniles constitutes an absolute mandate of restorative sentencing; however, its implementation experiences stagnation due to the conflict between the criminal law regime and the rigidity of the civil registration administrative system. This study aims to critique the conflict between administrative norms, evaluate the juridical efficacy of cooperative agreement documents, and analyze the legal implications arising from passive maladministration by partner institutions. This empirical legal research employs a qualitative, critical-analytical approach at the Ambon Class II JCF, involving five key informants selected via purposive sampling, and is supported by an analysis of eight institutional partnership instruments. The research findings demonstrate that the absence of National Identification Numbers, resulting from families’ sociological vulnerability, deprives adjudicated juveniles of their civil rights to obtain national diploma legality. This failure of legal protection is exacerbated by the cooperative documents’ weak binding capacity, which lacks public service sanction clauses. The structural weakness of these contractual instruments generates a sphere of impunity that facilitates passive maladministration manifesting as an omission by regional educational institutions. The relevant institution has been proven to have deferred the administration of equivalency examinations for three consecutive academic years without engaging hierarchical coordination to escalate the issue to the central ministry. Sociologically, the absence of graduation legality threatens the future of adjudicated juveniles within the formal labor market and potentially triggers recidivism. This study recommends affirmative interventions through cross-sectoral identity-recording services with population registration agencies, a complete overhaul of the construction of cooperative agreement clauses to establish enforceable public law instruments, and resolving government bureaucratic stagnation through the functions of Supervisory and Observational Judges.

Abstract

This study examines the outer limits of the shift in a Notary’s official responsibility from the administrative sphere to criminal liability for an act beyond authority (ultra vires), namely holding land transaction funds in a personal account through an unauthorized escrow arrangement. This study aims to dogmatically analyze the transformation of procedural malpractice into co-perpetration in embezzlement, examine the proof of trial facts at first instance, and critically evaluate the correction of enforceable custodial sanctions by the High Court and the Supreme Court. This study employs doctrinal legal research using the statute approach, the conceptual approach, and complete legal chain analysis across three judicial levels. The results show that the Defendant’s failure to comply with the protocol requiring the physical presence of appearers in drawing up a power of attorney to sell constituted an act of commission that served as an enabling factor for the commission of the substantive offence. The Defendant’s unilateral control over the settlement funds and fabrication of backdated receipts were qualified as active acts satisfying all elements of embezzlement in the form of co-perpetration (medeplegen). This study concludes that the conditional sentence imposed by the Jombang District Court exceeded the proper limits of judicial discretion. This error was properly corrected by the Surabaya High Court and affirmed by the Supreme Court, which imposed a seven-month enforceable custodial sentence to uphold general deterrence and restore public trust. The policy implication of this study confirms that the Defendant’s dishonourable dismissal from the office of Notary must be pursued through the operation of Article 12 letter c of Law Number 30 of 2004 upon the proposal of the Central Supervisory Council, because the Defendant’s conduct was proven to degrade the dignity of the office.
