Abstract

The purpose of this study is to further analyze the urgency of recording interfaith marriages in population administration regulations for legalization and licensing. The research method used is a normative legal research method with a statutory approach. The results of this study found that the registration of interfaith marriages is an important aspect to ensure the formal legality and protection of the civil rights of couples, such as inheritance rights, joint property, and child status. However, interfaith couples often face legal obstacles because population administration regulations do not explicitly accommodate interfaith marriages. As a result, they often have to resort to the courts to obtain legalization. The role of the court is crucial in granting permission for registration, although decisions vary depending on the interpretation of the judge. While some are successful, the process still poses legal and social challenges for couples.

Abstract

This research aims For discussing the application of diversion for children who are perpetrators of the crime of distributing pornographic videos from the perspective of legal protection against children's rights as victims and causal factors . The method used in the research is legal empirical with qualitative descriptive data analysis that describes and explains data and field facts. The results of the study show that the application of diversion to children who are perpetrators of the crime of distributing pornographic videos, viewed from the legal protection of children as victims in Gorontalo, is basically to protect children as perpetrators of crimes and provide them with the opportunity to improve themselves and not affect their future. This is also one of the legal policies in the context of protecting children as perpetrators of pornography crimes. However, the implementation of diversion still has an impact on the existence of mental/psychological and physical pressure on children as victims. Therefore, from the aspect of protection for victims, the implementation of diversion in cases of the distribution of pornographic videos does not pay enough attention to the rights and mentality of the victim, because the perpetrator continues to distribute the video to his friends during the mediation process. However, the PPA unit of the Gorontalo Regional Police prioritizes the resolution of children's cases outside the court through this diversion and is the main choice in its resolution, on the grounds that there is no deviation from the requirements of diversion, namely criminal acts with a threat of less than 7 years and not a repetition of the crime. The factors that influence the implementation of diversion against children who are perpetrators of the crime of distributing pornographic videos at the Gorontalo Regional Police are the Intention of the Perpetrator and Family and economic capacity limitations; Lack of public understanding; and The absence of LPSK in Gorontalo thus hindering and influencing the provision of decisions on compensation that must be received by families and victims of the distribution of pornographic content in Gorontalo.

Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to examine the role of the Office of Religious Affairs (Kantor Urusan Agama or KUA) in reducing underage marriage rates and to identify the factors that hinder the execution of its duties. The research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Primary data were collected through in-depth interviews with KUA officials, community leaders, parents, and underage marriage participants, while secondary data were gathered from official documents, annual reports, and relevant literature. The findings reveal that KUA has implemented various measures to prevent early marriages, such as stringent administrative document verification, community outreach, and premarital counseling. However, KUA faces several challenges, including limited human resources, cultural resistance, and a lack of cross-sectoral collaboration, which hinder its effectiveness in combating underage marriages. This study recommends strengthening institutional capacity, enhancing cross-sectoral collaboration, and leveraging digital technology to support education and prevention efforts. With a holistic strategy and strong support from various stakeholders, underage marriage rates can be significantly reduced.

Abstract

The social conflict in Pohuwato Regency, involving local communities and mining companies, reflects the tensions between formal law and customary values. This conflict is triggered by power imbalances, a lack of recognition for customary rights, and minimal transparency in natural resource management. This study aims to analyze the root causes of the conflict, evaluate the role of law in creating social justice, and identify solutions based on the principle of inclusive legal certainty. The research methodology employs a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including interviews, observations, and document analysis. The study's findings indicate that formal law often overlooks local norms, thereby exacerbating tensions between the community and companies. Resolving the conflict requires the integration of customary values into formal policies, transparency in mining management, and the establishment of independent mediation institutions involving all parties. Additionally, economic empowerment of the community and legal education are strategic steps to enhance the community's capacity to handle conflicts. The research recommendations include strengthening the government's role as a neutral facilitator, developing local policies based on community participation, and ensuring that companies commit to relevant social responsibility programs. In conclusion, resolving the conflict in Pohuwato can serve as a model for managing similar conflicts in other regions, while supporting social harmony and sustainable development.

Abstract

: This study analyzes consumer legal protection against Commanditaire Vennootschap (CV) entities that fail to meet their obligations under Indonesia's Consumer Protection Law (UUPK). It examines challenges in implementing the UUPK and evaluates the effectiveness of legal sanctions in improving CV compliance. Using a qualitative approach, the research employs descriptive analysis and case study methods. Data were gathered from literature reviews, legislation analysis, case studies of CV violations, and interviews with legal experts, business operators, and consumers.  Findings highlight challenges, including limited awareness among CV operators of legal obligations, resource constraints, and low consumer awareness of rights. The effectiveness of UUPK sanctions is hampered by slow enforcement, lack of transparency, and inadequate law enforcement support. Despite administrative and criminal sanctions, these measures have yet to provide a significant deterrent effect, allowing violations to persist.  This study recommends a holistic approach to strengthen UUPK implementation. Key strategies include enhancing law enforcement capacity, providing continuous education for business operators and consumers, and offering incentives for regulatory compliance. Collaboration among government, institutions, business associations, and operators is essential to improve consumer protection and establish a fair, transparent, and sustainable business environment in Indonesia

Abstract

This study compares the legal and regulatory frameworks for the division of joint property after divorce in Indonesia and Malaysia, and analyzes the social and economic factors that influence the process. In Indonesia, the division of joint property is regulated by Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage and Law No. 23 of 2004 on the Elimination of Domestic Violence, which accommodate the diversity of customary law and secular approaches. Meanwhile, in Malaysia, the division of joint property is more influenced by Sharia law integrated with the common law system, providing a more structured and consistent procedure for Muslims. The study also identifies social and economic factors such as gender roles, education level, economic conditions, employment status, cultural norms, and power dynamics in the marital relationship as key determinants of the division of joint property. The results show that although both countries have similar cultures and are predominantly Muslim, differences in the integration of Sharia and secular law as well as socio-economic factors create significant variations in the implementation of the division of joint property. To improve fairness and efficiency, it is recommended that Indonesia adopt Malaysia's more structured procedures, while Malaysia can take advantage of the flexibility of Indonesia's mixed legal system. This collaboration is expected to produce a system for the distribution of joint assets that is fairer, more consistent and more responsive to evolving social and economic needs

Abstract

This study examines the regulations governing work accident insurance claims issued by BPJS Employment, which serves as a stakeholder for Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) in their host countries. Often, PMIs encounter difficulties in claiming the Work Accident Insurance (JKK). The purpose of this research is to elucidate the procedures for filing work accident claims for PMIs. This study adopts a normative juridical method. The findings indicate that there are two stages involved in claiming JKK for PMIs in the host country. The first stage must be carried out within a maximum of seven days after the work accident occurs, accompanied by the required supporting documents. The second stage must be completed within a maximum of seven days after the worker has fully recovered. Furthermore, PMIs who are already in the host country but cannot claim their work accident benefits particularly those requiring treatment in Indonesia are entitled to compensation as stipulated in Article 17 paragraphs (2) and (4) of Minister of Manpower Regulation Number 18 of 2018

Abstract

The distribution of inheritance for adopted children in Islamic inheritance and civil law in Indonesia is a complex and multidimensional issue, reflecting the dynamics between the principles of religious law and the development of modern secular law. This study aims to analyze the position of adopted children in the Islamic inheritance system and civil law, and to identify the challenges and integrative solutions needed to protect their rights. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive-analytical approach, through literature studies, interviews with legal experts, and analysis of relevant laws and regulations. The results of the study indicate that traditional Islamic law does not automatically recognize adopted children as heirs, except through special mechanisms such as wills, while civil law provides greater flexibility by recognizing the inheritance rights of adopted children as equal to biological children. This difference gives rise to legal conflicts, especially in families that integrate the two legal systems. In addition to legal aspects, social and ethical factors such as cultural stigma also influence the acceptance of adopted children's inheritance rights. This study recommends harmonization between Islamic law and civil law through legal reform and constructive dialogue between stakeholders, as well as increasing education and public awareness regarding the rights of adopted children in inheritance. Thus, it is hoped that a more just and inclusive legal system will be created, which is able to protect the rights of adopted children while maintaining the basic principles of Islamic law.
