The results of this study are that the interpretation used by constitutional justices to test Perppu is a teleological and sociological interpretation.Keywords: Interpretation; Test; PERPPU; Constitutional Court.

The laws governing the House of Representatives, the Supreme Court, the Constitutional Court, and the Supreme Audit Board, each require the need for presidential approval in criminal proceedings against state officials in that institution. The public spotlight is more often directed at politicians by looking at the petition for judicial review submitted, even though the provision also applies to supreme judges, constitutional judges, and members of the Supreme Audit Board. The problem to be studied in this paper is what is the essence of the president's approval in the criminal process of members of the House of Representatives, supreme judge, constitutional judge, and members of the Supreme Audit Agency, as well as how to synchronize these arrangements. The essence of the president's approval was reviewed based on the opinion of the Constitutional Court stated in its decision, the history of the regulation in the law, and the reference to the norm in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. Based on the results of the study, it is difficult to obtain certainty of the essence of the approval of the president, except in the context of maintaining the continuity of the wheels of government which is not appropriate if it is then carried out by giving authority to the president to give approval in criminal proceedings. The results of the study also found six points of synchronization problems. Based on the results of the study, three options are recommended, namely removing these provisions and looking for the options to establishing a forum previligiatum; regulate in separate laws, or be included as part of criminal procedural law.AbstrakUndang-undang yang mengatur Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat, Mahkamah Agung, Mahkamah Konstitusi, dan Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan, masing-masing mensyaratkan perlunya persetujuan presiden dalam proses pidana terhadap pejabat negara yang berada di lembaga tersebut. Sorotan masyarakat lebih sering ditujukan kepada politisi. Hal ini terlihat dari permohonan uji materi yang diajukan, padahal ketentuan tersebut juga berlaku untuk hakim agung, hakim konstitusi, dan anggota Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan. Permasalahan yang ingin dikaji dalam tulisan ini adalah apa esensi persetujuan presiden dalam proses pidana anggota Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat, hakim agung, hakim konstitusi, dan anggota Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan, serta bagaimana sinkronisasi pengaturan tersebut. Esensi persetujuan presiden dikaji berdasarkan pendapat MK yang tertuang dalam pertimbangan putusannya, sejarah pengaturan dalam undang-undang, dan rujukan norma tersebut di Undang Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Sinkronisasi pengaturan dilihat berdasarkan peristilahan, tindak pidana yang dikecualikan, dan pelaku penegakan hukum pidana. Berdasarkan hasil kajian, sulit mendapatkan kepastian esensi dari persetujuan presiden, kecuali dalam konteks untuk menjaga keberlangsungan roda pemerintahan yang itu pun tidak tepat apabila kemudian dilakukan dengan memberikan kewenangan kepada presiden untuk memberikan persetujuan dalam proses pidana. Hasil kajian juga menemukan adanya 6 (enam) ketidaksinkronan pengaturan mengenai persetujuan presiden tersebut. Berdasarkan hasil kajian tersebut direkomendasikan 3 (tiga) opsi, yaitu menghapus ketentuan persetujuan presiden tersebut dan mengkaji kemungkinan pembentukan forum previligiatum; mengatur dalam undang-undang tersendiri, atau dimasukkan sebagai bagian dari undang-undang hukum acara pidana.

By presenting the Court’s principal lines of case law regarding the allocation of powers in the Italian constitutional system, this chapter explores the constitutionally regulated relationships among the President, Executive, Parliament, and Judiciary. It reveals that rather than a “separation of powers” in the conventional sense of contemporary constitutional models, the Italian system is best described as instituting a set of reciprocal “relations of powers” with the Constitutional Court as the “judge of powers” that maintains and guarantees these interrelationships of constitutional actors. The chapter explores this role of the Constitutional Court in its relations with both Parliament and the President of the Republic, as well as the Court’s regulation of the relationship between the President and the Executive.

Percentage provisions have a substantial part in the electoral law reform, especially for mathematical formulation. This research, that uses normative legal research method, showed that a legitimacy of percentage provision for candidacy requirement in President and Vice President Election is based on the legal authority of The House of Representatives. The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and most constitutions of other countries are not setting up a rigid formal requirement, like a minimum percentage, for presidential candidacy. A legal term has an important position in the making of law. A convention that uses “presidential threshold” as a term should be justified within a legal theoritical framework. Meanwhile, the perpetual discussion to create presidential system of government can works effectively, with a good support from the House of Representative, has always been a spirit but also a debatable material in every political acts in Indonesia. Legal formulation that used in Law No. 42-2008 must be viewed comprehensive so that justice and fairness in this political institutionalization process can be realized.
