Abstract

This normative research aimed to examine the extent of ministerial circular letters in Indonesia and whether a particular circular letter violates the Law Number 17 of 2014. Through a qualitative literature review and legal analysis, the study found that Minister of Finance Circular Letter Number S-841/Mk.02/2014 does not fall under the category of legislative rules and lacks external application, thus rendering it illegal. The study suggests that ministerial circular letters must adhere to the law, philosophy, and social considerations to be considered legitimate. The findings have implications for the proper implementation and interpretation of ministerial circular letters in Indonesia. Highlights: Ministerial circular letters in Indonesia must comply with the law, philosophical principles, and social considerations to be considered legitimate. Ministerial circular letters are not regulations that apply to the general public, but only to ministries or institutions. Ministerial circular letters that contradict higher laws are considered illegal.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the basis for judges' considerations in cases of domestic psychological violence and to examine the causes of disparities in judges' decisions. The research employed a normative juridical research method. The results showed that judges' considerations in domestic psychological violence cases were based on three factors: juridical, sociological, and ideal philosophical considerations, which resulted in different decisions. The study found that disparities in judges' decisions could not be eliminated due to various influencing factors. Nonetheless, the act of psychological violence is considered a crime that disturbs family harmony and is prohibited by Law No. 23 of 2004. This research has implications for the need to establish clear guidelines for judges in handling domestic psychological violence cases to ensure consistency and fairness in the legal system. Highlights: The judge's considerations in domestic psychological violence cases include juridical, sociological, and ideal philosophical aspects. Different considerations can result in different decisions, even in similar cases. Acts of psychological violence in the household are prohibited by Law No. 23 of 2004 and can disrupt family harmony.

Abstract

This study examines the legal standing of the Indonesian Tyre Business Association (APBI) in light of the KPPU Decision Number 08/Pdt.G/KPPU-I-2014 concerning tire cartel violations in the Indonesian automotive industry. Utilizing normative legal research methods focusing on positive legal norms, the study identifies and systematizes violations of business competition rules by six major APBI member companies between 2008 and 2012, and critically analyzes and interprets the evidentiary basis of these findings. The companies allegedly colluded on tire pricing, manipulating the market for Passenger Car Radial (PCR) tires and inducing unfair business competition. The study asserts that, while the APBI's role in facilitating this collusion was apparent, its legal liability remains unclear due to the association's ability to influence member practices without a binding enforcement mechanism. These findings raise critical implications for market competition and cartel law enforcement, necessitating a re-evaluation of the legal provisions surrounding business associations, especially in the context of Indonesia's anti-monopoly and unfair competition laws.Highlights: APBI's facilitation of cartel behavior among its members. Unclear legal liability of business associations in anti-competitive practices. Need for re-evaluation of legal provisions surrounding business associations. Keywords: Cartel, Indonesian Tyre Business Association (APBI), Unfair Business Competition, Competition Law, Indonesian Tyre Industry
