Abstract

The Community Movement for Boundary Marker Installation (GEMAPATAS) Program is a program from the Ministry of ATR/BPN. This program primarily involves community outreach to raise awareness about the importance of installing land boundary markers, along with the free installation of these markers by BPN. After the program's implementation in Wonogiri Regency in 2023, it was found that there was no significant reduction in land boundary disputes. In fact, such disputes remained the most frequently reported land issues by the residents of Wonogiri. This study aims to examine and analyze the implementation and role of the GEMAPATAS Program in reducing land boundary disputes in Wonogiri Regency. The research employs a qualitative method with an empirical juridical approach and descriptive qualitative data analysis techniques. The findings indicate that the GEMAPATAS Program has been implemented fairly well and has received positive responses from the community. For instance, in Pracimantoro Village, one of the program's pilot locations in Wonogiri Regency, the initiative has helped reduce land boundary disputes and increased public awareness about the importance of boundary markers. Additionally, GEMAPATAS has accelerated the implementation of the Complete Systematic Land Registration (PTSL) Program. However, the program has not yet significantly reduced land boundary disputes at the regency level. This is attributed to its limited implementation, covering only 24 villages in Wonogiri Regency, leading to uneven execution. Therefore, it is hoped that the GEMAPATAS Program can be expanded to achieve more optimal results in reducing land boundary disputes in Wonogiri Regency.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Regulation of the Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning Number 5 of 2020 concerning electronic mortgage services (HT-el) in Indonesia, with a focus on the role of PPAT and its impact on the mortgage registration process. The method used is qualitative with an empirical legal approach, through interviews, direct observation, literature studies, and analysis of related laws and regulations. The results of the study indicate that the HT-el system improves the efficiency, security, and transparency of land services, speeds up the process from months to around 7 days, and reduces costs and facilitates access. However, the implementation of this system faces obstacles such as system disruptions, data synchronization failures, and adaptation challenges from officials and debtors. Education, mentoring, and improving infrastructure and human resource capacity are needed to ensure the success of this digital transformation. This study emphasizes the importance of technological modernization in land administration in order to improve service quality and reduce the potential for document misuse.

Abstract

Legal uncertainty surrounding land ownership based solely on Petok D documents, which are often not recognized within the formal land administration system, has the potential to cause agrarian conflicts involving companies, the government, or local residents. This study employed a qualitative approach with empirical juridical research methods, utilizing interviews, observations, and document analysis. The data collected were analyzed and presented descriptively. The results show that the community in Desa Cabak still heavily relies on Petok D as the basis for land ownership claims; however, these documents do not always meet the administrative requirements for land certification. There is also a significant gap between customary law and state law, making it difficult for the community to obtain legal certainty. Additional challenges include limited public understanding of legal procedures, overlapping land policies, and weak legal protection for non-certificate ownership evidence. The study concludes that affirmative policies and more inclusive regulatory reforms are needed to accommodate the social realities of communities with longstanding customary land rights. A comprehensive solution could strengthen the legal position of the community and help prevent future agrarian conflicts.

Abstract

This study examines the accessibility rights of persons with disabilities in the context of general elections in Indonesia based on national regulations and their implementation. Although Law Number 8 of 2016 and KPU Regulation Number 25 of 2023 have established inclusive political rights for persons with disabilities, challenges remain in practice, such as insufficient facilities and assistive devices at polling stations (TPS). Survey findings and election monitoring reports reveal a significant gap between regulations and their implementation, especially in providing adequate accessibility. This article also highlights the importance of affirmative legal policies, involvement of disability organizations, and stricter oversight to ensure full and equal political participation for persons with disabilities. The study concludes that structured and systematic efforts are needed to guarantee an inclusive democracy that upholds human rights and equality.

Abstract

Environmental damage caused by corporations in Indonesia poses a serious threat to ecological sustainability and community welfare. This paper aims to analyze the legal framework and implementation of corporate criminal liability in environmental crimes. The main issue discussed is the ineffectiveness of law enforcement in holding corporations accountable despite their significant role in causing environmental damage. Using a normative juridical method, this research examines laws, doctrines, court decisions, and relevant legal literature. This study identifies several legal theories used to establish corporate liability, including the theory of identification, strict liability, and vicarious liability. The research findings reveal that although the Indonesian legal system, particularly Law No. 32 of 2009 and the new Criminal Code (Law No. 1 of 2023), recognizes corporations as criminal law subjects, their practical enforcement remains weak. The main challenges include corporate structural complexity, difficulties in proving mens rea, regulatory ambiguity, and political or economic influences. This study concludes that more effective enforcement mechanisms are needed, involving not only criminal sanctions but also remedial actions such as environmental restoration and corporate accountability. Strengthening institutional capacity, inter-agency coordination, and public participation are crucial steps toward improving environmental justice. This research underscores the urgency of comprehensive legal reform to ensure that corporations can be held criminally liable and contribute to sustainable environmental governance.

Abstract

This study examines the criminal liability of corporations as perpetrators of environmental crimes in Indonesia. With increasing industrial activities contributing to environmental degradation, holding corporations accountable under criminal law is essential to deter future violations and promote sustainable business practices. This research analyzes the existing legal framework, judicial practices, and challenges in enforcing corporate criminal responsibility for environmental damage. Through a doctrinal and case law approach, the study highlights gaps in regulation, inconsistencies in court rulings, and the difficulty of attributing mens rea (criminal intent) to corporate entities. The contribution of this study lies in proposing clearer legal criteria and enforcement mechanisms to strengthen corporate accountability for environmental harm. It emphasizes the need for comprehensive legislation that balances economic growth with environmental protection, ensuring that corporations cannot evade liability due to complex organizational structures. This research is relevant for policymakers, legal practitioners, and environmental advocates seeking effective solutions to environmental crimes committed by corporations in Indonesia.

Abstract

In land practice in Indonesia, there are still many land sale and purchase transactions that are carried out without a land title certificate and are only based on a Letter of Release of Rights (SPH). As in Decision No. 595/PDT/2018/PT.DKI and Decision No. 212 K/Pdt/2020. This writing aims to analyze the differences in the assessment of evidence of the Letter of Release of Rights (SPH) by the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court and assess its impact on the legal certainty of land ownership. This research uses a normative juridical method with the approach of legislation and decision studies. The results showed that the Court of Appeal considered that the Surat Pelepasan Hak (SPH) was not a valid proof of ownership because it did not meet the formal administrative requirements, while the Supreme Court considered the Surat Pelepasan Hak (SPH) to be legally valid because it was supported by the facts of physical possession, payment in full, and good faith.

Abstract

This article examines the dynamics of the development of contempt of court using legal theory in the context of modern Indonesia by emphasizing the importance of a deep, open way of thinking, and involving various fields of knowledge. The author uses a qualitative method with a sociological approach, and refers to M. Lawrence Friedman's theory that sees law as part of social life with a case study of contempt of court. Legal understanding cannot be separated from social and political influences, the rigid theory of legal positivism is no longer adequate to answer the complexity of legal problems in Indonesian society. A transdisciplinary approach is offered as a conceptual solution to enrich legal theory through integration with social science, ethics, and legal philosophy. The results show that contempt of court requires the establishment of a separate law to strengthen legal legitimacy and public trust in the judiciary.

Abstract

Land disputes, especially related to uncertified cultivated land, are still a complex problem in Indonesia. Case Decision Number 18/Pdt/2022/Ptptk juncto Number 30/Pdt.G/2021/PnKtp describes a situation where physical control of land without a certificate is legally disputed by another party claiming ownership rights. This study examines the legal issues in the dispute, considers the judge's decision, and examines the legal protection provided to the parties. The normative legal method with case studies was used to analyze the court decision. The results show that a land certificate is the strongest evidence of ownership, but continuous and open physical control can be the basis for a claim under certain conditions. However, without a certificate, the legal position of the cultivator becomes weak when faced with formal evidence from another party. The judge's consideration is very important in assessing evidence, good faith, and the history of land control. This decision reflects an effort to balance legal certainty, justice, and protection for all parties to the dispute.

Abstract

The construction of the Bawen-Jogja Toll Road has caused problems in the acquisition of agricultural land of SMK Negeri 1 Bawen covering an area of 1,752 m2, which is constrained by land ownership status. The complicated administrative process slows down the settlement of compensation. The purpose of this article is to analyze the land acquisition process and its compliance with Law Number 2 of 2012 Regarding Land Acquisition for Public Interest. The research method uses a normative legal approach with analysis of laws and regulations, interviews, and document studies. The results of the study show weaknesses in transparency and stakeholder involvement in the land acquisition process. Problematic land ownership status hinders compensation negotiations. In conclusion, the land acquisition process is not optimal and requires system improvements to ensure legal compliance, efficiency, and fairness. Improvements in procedures and transparency are urgently needed to prevent similar obstacles in future infrastructure projects.
