Abstract

In Article 1 of the Marriage Law, marriage reflects the spiritual and physical bond between a man and a woman with the aim of forming a happy and lasting family based on faith in the Almighty God. In legally valid marriages, the role of assets is crucial in building a household, both as individual and joint assets. Issues related to marital assets often arise, affecting the well-being and comfort within the marriage. Reasons for divorce include invalid marriages, domestic violence, neglect of responsibilities, and prolonged disputes. When both parties seek divorce, mediation is utilized as a means to resolve conflicts, guided by a mediator seeking resolution options. This study identifies factors contributing to the failure of mediation in resolving disputes over joint property. These factors include parties' knowledge, absence, cultural and character differences, reluctance to compromise, prolonged and complex conflicts, ill intentions, external influences, lack of understanding of rights and obligations, and materialistic tendencies. The success of mediation in the Medan Religious Courts depends on the mediator's ability, derived from knowledge, education, training, and experience, which serves as a tool to effectively assist parties in resolving their disputes.

Abstract

The Fourth Amendment to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, enacted in 2002, officially established the concept of the State of Law, or "Rechtsstaat," which was previously only mentioned in the Explanation of the 1945 Constitution. This concept was solidified in Article 1, paragraph (3), which states, "The State of Indonesia is a State of law." This study utilizes a normative legal research method, focusing on document analysis using various secondary data sources such as legal literature, court decisions, legal doctrines, and expert opinions. The research's analysis centers on the implementation of the rule of law principles within the constitutional framework, with a specific focus on legislation and law enforcement in Indonesia, particularly in the legislative domain. Despite efforts to reform legislation, there are still deficiencies in the legislative process that may hinder the effective implementation of the rule of law principles. Some challenges include inconsistencies in laws, the intricate nature of the legislative process, and potential political interventions that could compromise the independence of legislative bodies.

Abstract

Withdrawing criminal charges against Valencya during a trial's replication stage has generated debate, seemingly balancing the principles of legality and opportunity. This issue is significant because the Prosecutor in the Valencya Case has effectively assumed the role of Legal Advisor. This study presents a descriptive analysis of normative research within the criminal procedure system. By detailing the placement of legal charges in the Valencya case, a thorough analysis is conducted regarding the Public Prosecutor's authority in determining the legality and the discretion to discontinue prosecution. The Principle of Opportunity justifies discontinuation efforts in charge acquisition, even when clearance requirements are conducted in the replica agenda. While prioritizing legal interests to achieve justice for victims, the principle of legality can be waived, aligning with the concept of restorative justice in the Prosecutor's Office agenda.

Abstract

Restitution is the compensation paid by a perpetrator, as determined by a court with a final legal decision, to cover the material and/or immaterial losses suffered by the victim or their heirs. In cases involving child victims, restitution becomes obligatory for the perpetrator to compensate the victim for their losses. This demonstrates the perpetrator's responsibility for actions that have harmed the victim, their family, or heirs, in accordance with Article 71 D Paragraph (2) of Law Number 35 of 2014, which amends Law number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection. Restitution, as a form of compensation for victims of crimes, aligns with the Principle of Restoration to its Original Condition (restitutio in integrum), aiming to restore victims to their state before the crime, although complete restoration may not be possible. It emphasizes a holistic recovery approach, addressing various aspects resulting from the crime's consequences. Through restitution, victims can recover their freedom, legal rights, social status, family life, citizenship, residence, employment, and assets. The research will be conducted at the Belawan Police, Medan LPSK, and Bagan Deli Belawan Village.

Abstract

This study delves into mediation as a means of dispute resolution, particularly outside the courtroom, contrasting with the prevalent use of courts, especially in land dispute cases. It highlights mediation as a direct process with enduring positive effects, aiming to achieve peace and mutually beneficial solutions while ensuring no party is harmed. The resulting agreement from mediation holds legal weight and is considered final, bolstered by a peace agreement signed between the involved parties and the mediator. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of mediation as a conflict resolution tool outside the courtroom, culminating in a documented agreement. Employing normative legal research methods with a statutory approach, the study meticulously examines all relevant laws and regulations. Data collection utilizes literature review methods, providing a comprehensive reference base to support research on the role of mediators in dispute resolution. The gathered information is systematically compiled and analyzed using descriptive methods. In conclusion, mediation has demonstrated its effectiveness as an alternative to court proceedings in settling disputes. The mediator, acting as a facilitator, helps the parties reach an agreement. The outcomes of mediation, documented in the peace agreement, are registered in court, providing legal validity and conclusiveness to the agreed-upon terms.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the importance of carbon trading literacy in rural communities within the context of increasing awareness of climate change while enhancing village income. Understanding the concept of carbon trading becomes increasingly crucial. North Sumatra, with its diverse natural resources and economic sectors that have the potential to contribute to carbon emissions, has an urgent need to enhance carbon trading literacy among its populace. The research method used is literature review and interviews to gather data using a qualitative approach. The results indicate that the level of carbon trading literacy is still low, with limited understanding of the concept, benefits, and implications of carbon trading. Factors such as lack of access to information, education, and environmental awareness are major obstacles in enhancing carbon trading literacy in the community. The findings of this research highlight the urgency to enhance mentoring and education efforts regarding carbon trading.
