Abstract

This research explores the application of restorative justice, focusing on traffic cases resulting in fatalities, as outlined in Chapter XIX of the KUHP, which addresses crimes against the body. The study examines instances where traffic accidents caused deaths but were resolved through restorative justice practices. The findings indicate that within the National Police institution, the application of restorative justice in traffic cases is governed by both general and special conditions. These conditions are often conflicting, as general regulations typically reject restorative justice if a victim dies, yet special conditions allow for the possibility of resolving such cases at the investigation and inquiry levels. Similarly, at the Prosecutor's Office, the study revealed that the process of halting prosecution is generally not permissible for cases carrying sentences of over five years. However, in specific instances, exceptions are made, even though the Prosecutor's Office does not specifically address traffic crimes but regulates them under general provisions. This leads to an asynchronous approach to case resolution through restorative justice. The author concludes that there is a critical need for a dedicated law on Restorative Justice to ensure regulatory synchronization, thus providing clear and consistent guidelines for the application of restorative justice in traffic cases resulting in fatalities.

Abstract

This research discusses that the application of discretion often causes problems. However, on the one hand, discretion is also helpful for the Police in carrying out the investigation and investigation process so that they can quickly solve a problem that arises in the field. Law Number 2 of 2002 concerning the National Police of the Republic of Indonesia was born to try to put discretion into the practice of criminal law. The Criminal Procedure Code describes how discretion is applied, but the measure of the application of discretion, whether this discretion is better to exist or not, the value of discretion applied in Indonesia, and how we can exercise discretion. It has yet to be answered, and it is often a problem in the field because it seems arbitrary; for this reason, it is necessary to revise Law Number 2 of 2002 concerning the Police, which explains what discretion is and how it is applied. The research method used is normative legal research, which traces the legal literature linked to the discretionary concept approach presented by Hart.

Abstract

This study examines the complex interplay between formal legal structures, customary practices, and rapid urban development in shaping land ownership dynamics in Batam's old villages (kampung tua). Through a qualitative case study approach, incorporating document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and field observations, we investigate the challenges in reconciling traditional land rights with modern property laws in the context of Batam's development as a free trade zone. Our findings reveal that approximately 70% of land parcels in the studied villages lack formal titles, highlighting the prevalence of informal ownership systems. The research identifies significant legal pluralism, where national land laws, local regulations, and customary (adat) practices coexist and often conflict. Notaries emerge as key actors navigating this complex landscape, often expanding beyond their formal mandate to mediate between different systems of authority and ownership. The study underscores the limitations of current legal frameworks in addressing the unique challenges of land administration in rapidly urbanizing areas with strong customary traditions. We propose the need for more adaptive land governance approaches that can accommodate both formal and informal ownership structures, including specialized legal frameworks for recognizing customary land rights in urban contexts. This research contributes to the broader understanding of land rights issues in the face of rapid urban development and offers insights for policymakers, legal practitioners, and urban planners grappling with similar challenges in other developing regions.

Abstract

This study looked at the relationship between Nigeria's ongoing insecurity and poor governance. The article makes the theoretical case that the injustice, corruption, and self-serving leadership of Nigeria's leadership class are to blame for the country's current security problems. Ethnic, communal, religious, and resource-related conflicts have persisted throughout most of Nigeria since the country's restoration to democracy in 1999, following nearly three decades of military administration. This is made worse by the leadership's apparent inability to solve important national concerns like reducing poverty, creating jobs, allocating resources, developing infrastructure, etc. Accordingly, the study concludes that Although it is a huge task, combating insecurity in Nigeria is not insurmountable. Nigerians must therefore come together, and the ruling class must become fully committed to combating insecurity and forging a strong political will.

Abstract

Health services aim to maintain and improve the quality of health, as well as prevent and treat diseases in the community.This study aiming to analyze the legal certainty for health workers in health services, using the normative legal method. The data source comes from a literature review. The results of this study indicate that Law Number 17 of 2023 regarding Health brings significant changes to the legal certainty for health workers in Indonesia in terms of health services. Previously, legal certainty for health workers was spread across various separate laws. However, with the enactment of Law Number 17 of 2023, this legal protection has become more integrated and comprehensive. Updates regarding the protection of health workers include increasing the rights of health workers, including affirmation of compliance with professional standards and ethics. There are improvements in rights, salary, performance allowances, health insurance, and opportunities for self development. This protection is strengthened by giving health workers the authority to stop services if there is a violation of ethics. It is necessary to strengthen operational procedures and work standards that can be a reference for health workers in carrying out their duties, thereby reduce the risk of negligence that can result in criminal sanctions and additional regulations are also needed to ensure a fair legal mechanism for health workers in facing accusations of negligence, by considering ethics and professional aspects in their work.

Abstract

Village funds disbursed by the government sourced from the APBN are still considered as assets that continue to be targeted by certain Village Heads with low morals. The high political costs to get the number one seat in the village cause people to do anything to get it. Because the village funds disbursed are quite tempting. In just one year in mathematical calculations, the capital spent during the process of getting the position of village head can be returned. Therefore, the suboptimal performance of the village head is due to many stumbling blocks of interest. The village head is no longer focused on the promised programs. The village head only focuses on efforts to return the campaign funds spent so far. The high number of corruption cases that hit the village head if it does not become the government's attention, the disbursement of village funds which were originally intended to make the village strong, advanced and independent will be in vain. That is why the role of the Village Consultative Body is needed here, an independent institution whose status is outside the village government. The function of the BPD which is expressly stated in the village law has not been implemented optimally, this results in village fund leaks always occurring every year in almost all regions of Indonesia. This study uses a normative legal research type, namely research that focuses on research on related laws and regulations. The results of this study indicate that Village Fund Supervision in Improving the Performance of the Village Consultative Body has not been guided and based on the principles of Law No. 6 of 2014 concerning Villages. The BPD has not fully carried out its functions. And the obstacles experienced are mainly in the HR aspect besides the absence of regulations that explicitly explain how the technical supervision of the allocation of village funds.
