Abstract

The Blockchain Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia is an independent state institution established by post-reform legislation as a public service supervisor for decentralized systems. It holds immunity rights, shielding it from arrest, detention, interrogation, prosecution, or litigation. In practice, however, the Blockchain Ombudsman faces lawsuits from the public in court. This undermines legal certainty and disrupts the separation of powers in Indonesia’s digital governance. This study employs normative legal research with statutory, historical, and conceptual approaches. Findings reveal that the Blockchain Ombudsman emerged in Indonesia to protect user rights and address the need for power separation in modern blockchain-based governance. Its immunity rights originate from universal Ombudsman practices codified in law but require tailored regulatory frameworks. The execution of the Blockchain Ombudsman’s functions, duties, and authorities is intrinsically linked to functional immunity. Consequently, it cannot be sued or reported to other enforcement entities (e.g., regulatory agencies or decentralized autonomous organizations). Objections to maladministration audit outcomes may be raised internally via complaint mechanisms or externally by contesting the underlying issue in court.

Abstract

Pre-trial proceedings are a legal mechanism designed to control the actions of law enforcement officials, particularly in the process from investigation to prosecution. This study aims to analyze the role of pre-trial proceedings as a form of legal protection for victims of wrongful arrest, with a case study of street musicians in Cipulir who were named suspects without valid evidence. The method used is a normative juridical approach with descriptive analysis of legislation, legal doctrines, and relevant court decisions. The research results show that although pre-trial proceedings normatively have a strategic role in protecting the human rights of suspects, in practice there are still various weaknesses, including limitations in the scope of objects, the passive nature of pre-trial judges, and time constraints to resolve cases. The Cipulir case illustrates the failure of the pre-trial system to provide effective and responsive legal protection. Therefore, comprehensive legal reforms are needed, such as expanding the object of pre-trial proceedings, strengthening the role of judges, and increasing the capacity of law enforcement officials in guaranteeing procedural justice. This study recommends strengthening pre-trial proceedings as an instrument of judicial oversight in the Indonesian criminal justice system.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has encouraged various sectors to transform, including in the field of notary. One significant change is the transition of notarial deed minutes from physical paper to electronic form. This transformation not only provides efficiency in terms of storage space but also opens up opportunities to improve data security and reliability through the use of blockchain technology. Blockchain, with its decentralized and transparent nature, protects against forgery, loss, or manipulation of data. With the digitization and integration of blockchain-based storage systems, archiving notarial deeds can be more efficient, faster, and safer, and in line with the needs of modernizing legal and administrative systems in the digital era.

Abstract

Corruption is a serious issue that hinders development in Indonesia, affecting the economy, politics, and social sectors. To address this issue, the government established the Corruption Eradication Commission (Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi, KPK) as an independent institution tasked with the prevention, investigation, prosecution, and handling of corruption crimes. However, over time, the role and performance of the KPK have faced various challenges, including political intervention, regulatory changes, and obstacles in law enforcement. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the role and performance of the KPK in eradicating corruption crimes in Indonesia, as well as to evaluate its effectiveness in addressing corruption cases. This research uses both normative juridical and empirical methods. The normative juridical approach is carried out by analyzing various regulations related to corruption eradication, such as Law Number 31 of 1999 in conjunction with Law Number 20 of 2001 on Corruption Eradication, as well as Law Number 19 of 2019 on amendments to the KPK Law. Additionally, this research also adopts an empirical approach by reviewing secondary data from official KPK reports and various case studies that illustrate the patterns and effectiveness of law enforcement in corruption cases in Indonesia. Through the analysis of regulations and the implementation of the KPK’s authority, this study aims to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the institution’s role in corruption eradication. The results of this research also aim to identify the challenges faced by the KPK and provide strategic recommendations to strengthen the effectiveness of the institution in carrying out its duties. Thus, this research contributes to reinforcing efforts to combat corruption in Indonesia and improving policies related to the independence and performance of the KPK.

Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in legal practice has brought both transformative advancements and significant ethical challenges. This study examines the role of AI in enhancing advocacy practices, including legal research, document automation, and case prediction. Despite its potential for improving efficiency and accessibility, AI raises concerns regarding professional ethics, particularly around issues such as client confidentiality, accountability, and the independence of advocates. Using a normative approach and literature review, this research aims to analyze the implications of AI in the legal field, focusing on its impact on the advocacy profession and the ethical dilemmas it creates. The findings reveal that while AI can streamline administrative tasks and support data-driven decision-making, it also presents risks such as data security breaches and loss of human judgment in complex legal cases. The study highlights the necessity for stronger ethical guidelines and regulatory frameworks to safeguard client interests and preserve the integrity of the legal profession. This research emphasizes the importance of integrating AI into legal practice while maintaining a balance between technological advancement and ethical responsibility.

Abstract

Fiscal criminal law enforcement has a strategic role in protecting the fiscal interests of the state, especially in the taxation and customs sectors which are the main sources of state revenue. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of fiscal criminal law enforcement in handling criminal acts that are detrimental to state revenue, with a focus on the provisions stipulated in the Law on General Provisions and Tax Procedures (UU KUP), the Law on Harmonization of Tax Regulations (UU HPP), and the Customs Law. The research method used is a normative legal approach with an analysis of relevant laws and court decisions. The results indicate that although there have been quite comprehensive regulations, there are still challenges in coordination between law enforcement agencies, gaps between administrative and criminal sanctions, and obstacles to proof. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the law enforcement mechanism and harmonize regulations to improve the effectiveness of handling fiscal crimes as a whole.

Abstract

Public Private Partnership (PPP) has become a vital model for financing infrastructure development in Indonesia, addressing the limitation of state budget resources. However, the implementation of this model faces significant challenges due to legal voids and unclear regulations, leading to uncertainty and inefficiencies in infrastructure projects. This study aims to identify and analyze the legal gaps in the PPP framework, assess their impact on the cooperation process between the government and the private sector, and evaluate efforts by the government to address these gaps. Utilizing a normative legal approach and case study analysis, the research explores existing legal norms, identifies inconsistencies in regulations, and examines their effects on PPP project outcomes. The findings highlight the lack of synchronized regulations, unclear risk allocation, and gaps in contract termination and dispute resolution mechanisms. These issues contribute to investor hesitation and project delays. The study concludes that comprehensive regulatory reforms, including the establishment of a unified PPP law and clearer risk-sharing mechanisms, are necessary to create a more conducive investment climate and enhance the effectiveness of PPPs in infrastructure development. This research offers practical recommendations to improve legal certainty and policy implementation for future PPP projects in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the dualism of considerations and decisions of judges in addressing bankruptcy applications filed by workers, which prompted the Supreme Court to issue Supreme Court Circular Letter Number 2 of 2019. This study aims to analyze the legal problems in terms of substance in the circular letter as a legal basis for workers filing for bankruptcy. The method used is normative legal research with a statutory and a conceptual approach. The research results indicate that there are several legal problems in the substance of the Supreme Court Circular Letter Number 2 of 2019, including inconsistencies with the concept of bankruptcy in applicable laws and regulations, potential violations of absolute authority between the Commercial Court and the Industrial Relations Court, and the emergence of a legal vacuum that has an impact on legal certainty and protection for workers as creditors. The findings of this study have significant implications for both legal practice and policy. Firstly, the inconsistency in the application of bankruptcy law for workers creates confusion and limits workers' rights, undermining their ability to access timely justice. Furthermore, the legal vacuum caused by the circular letter highlights the need for clearer legislation to align judicial practices with constitutional rights. The study calls for a revision of SEMA Number 2 of 2019 to ensure workers are granted equal legal protections and access to bankruptcy processes, strengthening their bargaining position and guaranteeing their rights as creditors. Additionally, this research could guide lawma.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of liquefaction on land ownership status and reconstruction strategies that can be applied to ensure legal certainty and protection of the rights of affected communities. The liquefaction phenomenon that causes physical changes to the land can eliminate land boundaries and ownership documents, creating legal challenges in determining the status of land ownership after a disaster. The research discusses the laws and regulations governing destroyed land and the land rights elimination based on Government Regulation Number 18 of 2021, as well as the role of the National Land Agency (BPN) in land reconstruction through systematic registration and land redistribution. This study also identifies the importance of mapping technology and participatory approaches in land reconstruction to overcome administrative difficulties and ownership conflicts and provides policy recommendations to ensure the protection of community rights after a liquefaction disaster.

Abstract

Special Economic Zones (SEZs) have a strategic role in driving national economic growth through increased investment, job creation, and strengthening industrial competitiveness. However, the implementation of SEZs in Indonesia still faces various regulatory obstacles that hinder the effectiveness and optimization of the potential of the area. This study aims to analyze the importance of strengthening regulatory aspects in SEZ management as the main factor in accelerating Indonesia's economic growth. Using a normative legal approach and policy analysis, this study finds that regulatory harmonization, ease of licensing, and legal certainty are crucial elements in creating a conducive business climate in SEZs. Integrated and adaptive regulatory reforms to global dynamics are needed to optimize the role of SEZs as the driving force of the national economy.
