Abstract

Well-known marks are vulnerable to violations, including in Indonesia. Registered trademark disputes often occur between well-known and local mark owners regarding substantive similarities with well-known marks. Ironically, the dominant dispute resolution protects local marks with the rationality of mark protection based on Territorial Principles. This study aims to elaborate the protection of well-known marks related to the exception applying the Territorial Principle to substantively similar marks and to examine the advantages of the Distinctiveness Theory for more legal certainty. The study used a normative legal research method. Study reveals that the Territorial Principle applies to mark protection through Article 6 of the Paris Convention, Article 15 of TRIPs, Article 3 of Indonesian Law No.20/2016 on Mark and Geographical Indication. Protection of Well-Known Marks is excluded from the Territorial Principle as agreed in 1925 by member countries of the Paris Convention. The exception arrangements are through Article 6bis of the Paris Convention, Article 16 of the TRIPs Agreement, and Article 21 of Law No.20/2016. Marks that are substantively similar with similar elements in visuals, phonetics, and concepts are important for mark examiners, law enforcers, and the public to understand. Understanding the mark distinctiveness theory from the weakest to the strongest, namely: Generic, Descriptive, Suggestive, Fanciful, and Arbitrary as an alternative solution for advantages in mark registration. That will also minimize mark disputes. Good faith in the mark registration is capable of distinguishing goods or services products, it refers to distinctiveness theory.

Abstract

A gift is something which is given for free: it is intended to be the solution in the distributing inheritance so that there will be no conflict in practicing it. In reality, however, a gift is not the best solution because there are many disputes about the revocation of deed of gifts as what happens in the Verdict of the Medan PTA (High Religious Court) No.112/Pdt.G/2019/PTA.Mdn because a gift is a joint property and given by the parents to one of their children without any approval from the others heirs. The result is that it causes a conflict among the heirs since they think that it is not fair. This research uses juridical normative research method with descriptive analytical approach. The data consists of secondary data, obtained from primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. They are gathered by conducting library research and interviews. The gathered data are analyzed by using qualitative analytical method. The result of the research suggests that the revocation of the deed of gift happens because there is a regulation which has been violated-the gift is more than 1/3 of the property. In making the deed of gift, a PPAT is a responsible for it. He is required to understand the regulation the regulations on distrtribution of gift, let alone if the heirs and the testators are moslems. He has to know how to distribute a gift in the KHI (Complication of the Islamic Laws), and he has to apply the Principle of Prudence in making Deeds of Gift in order to avoid conflicts. The conclusion is that the Deed of Gift No.184/Binjai Kota/2004 issued by PPAT in the Verdict of the Medan PTA (High Religious Court) No.112/Pdt.G/2019/PTA.Mdn does not have any legal force because the deed of gift has violated the Islamic Sharia specified in Article 210 of KHI in which is more than 1/3 of the testator’s property and the distribution of inheritance does not have any approval from the heirs. The consequence is that the receiver loses his right on the gift. The panel of the judges’ decision causes the status of the land and the building becomes the joint property again. The panel of judges’ decision in this Verdict has applied the Principle of Prudence for the whole party since the judges’ do not side with any parties in the litigation, and they recognize the equality of rights and obligations of both parties.

Abstract

The protection of personal data is a top priority in the digital era, especially with the increasing threats to individual privacy and security of sensitive information such as health, biometric, and genetic data. Law No. 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection (PDP Law) is present as a legal framework that emphasizes the principles of transparency, security, and accountability to prevent data misuse. However, the implementation of the PDP Law in Indonesia faces significant challenges, such as technological limitations, low awareness among Electronic System Operators (PSEs), and weak law enforcement mechanisms. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Article 4(2) of the PDP Law in protecting sensitive data and explore strategic steps to overcome implementation constraints. The research methods used are normative research with juridical and conceptual approaches, as well as qualitative analysis. The juridical approach analyzes legal texts, while the conceptual approach explores the best practices of international regulations such as the EU GDPR. The data was analyzed descriptive-analytically to identify obstacles and solutions. The results of the study show that strengthening supervision, the adoption of advanced technologies such as AI and blockchain, and public education are urgently needed. This research recommends synergy between the government, PSE, and the community to create a safe and reliable digital ecosystem, while supporting digital transformation and sustainable economic growth.

Abstract

The World Conference on Women held in Nairobi in 1985 has greatly changed the gender paradigm throughout the world. It was at this conference that the term gender mainstreaming was first introduced. Gender issues are problems that always have pros and cons in a social system in society, which then has an impact on the legal system in a country. A country becomes strong if it is supported by a strong legal system. Therefore, building the foundations for gender mainstreaming in strengthening the legal system will be a strategic step to create a legal system that is inclusive and fair for all parties, especially marginalized parties. The research method used to examine problems related to how to build the foundations of gender mainstreaming in the legal system is the normative juridical method. Gender mainstreaming in the legal system includes the integration of gender perspectives in every process of creating, implementing, and evaluating legal policies. In order to strengthen the legal system, gender mainstreaming also involves drafting more gender-sensitive regulations with effective monitoring mechanisms to avoid discriminatory acts.

Abstract

The implementation of customary law in Indonesia faces various challenges related to the recognition and protection of the rights of indigenous peoples, especially those related to customary and land rights. Although the 1945 Constitution and other regulations, such as the Forestry Law recognize the existence of indigenous peoples, the reality on the ground shows an imbalance between customary law norms and positive law, which often leads to conflict and neglect of indigenous peoples' rights. Development policies that are oriented towards economic interests frequently conflict with the traditional rights of indigenous peoples, causing injustice. This article discusses legal issues related to the implementation of customary law and provides solutions and recommendations to strengthen legal protection for indigenous people, through regulatory reform, constructive dialogue, and more inclusive development policies.

Abstract

Disputes arise between two or more parties when one party feels dissatisfied or harmed. Fundamentally, disputing parties are granted the freedom to determine their preferred dispute resolution mechanisms. According to Laura Nader and Harry F. Todd, disputes evolve through three stages: (1) Pre-conflict, characterized by underlying dissatisfaction; (2) Conflict, when the parties become aware of the dissatisfaction; and (3) Dispute, where the conflict is openly expressed or involves a third party.  Legally binding peace agreements are crucial instruments for resolving disputes across various legal domains, including civil, criminal, and administrative law. However, in practice, there are frequent instances where one party fails to uphold the terms of a court-ratified peace agreement. This paper examines the legal aspects of violations of legally binding peace agreements, their implications, and the potential solutions to ensure the sustainable implementation of such agreements.

Abstract

Environmental damage can be considered a loss to the state economy. In terms of analyzing the state economy, the author takes the perspective of state control rights. The Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia in Article 33 paragraph (3), which states that the earth, water and natural resources are controlled by the state and properly managed for the greatest prosperity of the people. This should be referred to as a philosophical guideline because the management and administration of the state economy must and must have aspects of concern for the prosperity of the people Observed from the sustainability of the state's operational activities in building a climate of public services recorded in 2018, the state issued a balance of Rp. 112 trillion, with an increase from the previous year, namely in 2014 to 2017 with a total of only Rp. 115 trillion. This in a year beats the expenditure that is consumable and the tendency to do repeated procurement from the total of the past three years. The view of wasting costs for a kind of environmental rehabilitation must be used with the prefix of mitigation, contextually the state is obliged with its role to maximize the right to state control to prevent negative extreme damage to the environment. This research is studied and made with normative legal research methods, explicitly using a statutory approach (statuate approach), and a conceptual approach (conceptual approach). The statutory approach is chosen by the author to analyze the problem with relevant regulations and regulations, so that this research has an analytical technique that is based on positive law in Indonesia.
