Judicial institutions, as law enforcement agencies in the Criminal Justice System, are a foundation of hopes for justice seekers, as based on Article 2 section (4) of Law No. 48 of 2009, regulates that “the Court is done simply, quickly, and at a low cost”. Therefore, this study aims to determine the implementation of the Supervision and Observation Judge's role and the obstacles that affect the Supervision and Observation Judge's performance in implementing Court Decisions in the Penitentiary. This study uses two types of research, namely normative legal research and empirical legal research. This research was conducted at the Makassar Class I Penitentiary and the Makassar Class IA District Court. The types of data used in this study include primary data and secondary data. The data that has been collected is then processed descriptively qualitatively. The results of the study concluded that the implementation of the role of the Supervision and Observation Judge in the implementation of the decision of the Makassar Class IA District Court at the Makassar Class I Penitentiary has not run optimally, because between The Supervision and Observation Judge and the Head of the Penitentiary rarely meet and discuss guidance issues for Inmates at the Penitentiary. The obstacles in implementing the role of the Supervision and Observation Judge at the Penitentiary include the problem of insufficient funds available for operational supervision and observation and the absence of special staff to assist the Supervision and Observation Judge in recording their Inmates. Therefore, more specific implementing regulations are needed to certify that the judgment is being properly executed and under the laws and regulations in Indonesia. Furthermore, there is a need for effective cooperation between the Supervision and Observation Judge and the Penitentiary Officers, who must always coordinate as one unit in an integrated Criminal Justice System.

Penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis  tentang proses penahanan dalam sistem peradilan pidana dan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi tentang proses penahanan dalam sistem peradilan pidana. Metode penelitian, kalau dilihat dari tipe penelitiannya maka termasuk penelitian hukum empiris karena penekanannya adalah menelaah fenomena hukum yang berkaitan dengan proses penahanan dalam sistem peradilan pidana. Sehingga data yang dibutuhkan dalam peneltian ini adalah data primer dan data sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa proses penahanan dalam sistem peradilan pidana kurang efektif disebabkan karena didalam Pasal 31 KUHAP masih memberikan peluang untuk melakukan penangguhan penahanan bagi tersangka. Dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi tentang proses penahanan dalam sistem peradilan pidana adalah faktor substansi hukum, sgtruktur hukum dan budaya hukum. Direkomendasikan bahwa perlu adanya suatu aturan yang jelas tentang penangguhan penahanan karena dalam Pasal 31 KUHAP sebenarnya tidak memberikan peluang untuk melakukan penangguhan penahanan tetapi kalau dikaitkan dengan Pasal 29 KUHAP seakan ada peluang untuk melakukan penangguhan penahanan. Dan jangka waktu penahanan terlalu lama pada tiap-tiap tahap pemeriksaan, sehingga perlu adanya suatu aturan baru yang mengatur tentang penahanan. This research is to know and analyze about the containment process in the criminal justice system and to know and analyze the factors that affect the containment process in the criminal justice system. The research method, when viewed from the type of research, includes empirical legal studies because the emphasis is on studying legal phenomena related to the detention process in the criminal justice system.sSo the data needed in this study are primary data and secondary data. The results showed that the detention process in the criminal justice system was less effective because in article 31, KUHAP still gave the opportunity to suspend the detention of the suspect. And the factors that affect the detention process in the criminal justice system are the legal substance factors, the legal and cultural sgtructure. It is recommended that there is a clear rule about the suspension of detention because in article 31 the criminal CODE does not actually provide an opportunity to suspend the detention but the Kmalau is associated with article 29 of the criminal CODE as if there is an opportunity to suspend the detention. And the period of detention is too long in each phase of the inspection, so there needs to be a new rule governing the detention of.

Children as members of the next generation need to be protected. In the juvenile justice system, children are entitled to legal protection, both in the context of their position as children in conflict with the law (i.e. as criminals) and as victims or witnesses of crime. The laws of the Juvenile Criminal Justice System have been arranged to require the judge to consider the Social Research Report (SRR) given by community advisors before the verdict. The purpose of the study is to explain the benefits of Social Research Reports for children in conflict with the law and the constraints faced in preparing them. The experiment was conducted using an empirical juridical approach by promoting the use of primary data and was supported by secondary data. Based on the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that SRR preparation is very beneficial for children in conflict with the law. It contains conditions that explain the relationship between the condition of the offender and the committed criminal act so that it can be the basis of consideration for law enforcement officers in making the best decision for the children. Keywords: Social Research Report (SRR), Community Advisors (CA), children in conflict with the law

In criminal law, a person charged with a criminal offense may be punished if it meets two matters, namely his act is unlawful, and the perpetrator of a crime may be liable for the indicated action (the offender's error) or the act may be dismissed to the perpetrator, and there is no excuse. The reasons may result in the death or the removal of the implied penalty. But it becomes a matter of how if the Letter of Statement Khilaf is the answer to solve the legal problems. The person who refuses or does not do what has been stated in the letters is often called "wanprestasi" because the statement is categorized as an agreement. The statement includes an agreement which is the domain of civil law or criminal law, so its application in the judicial system can be determined. This should be reviewed in the application of the law, are there any rules governing wrong statements in the criminal justice system. By using a declaration of khilaf as a way out of criminal matters, then the statement should be known in juridical rules. This study uses normative juridical methods, by conceptualizing the law as a norm rule which is a benchmark of human behavior, with emphasis on secondary data sources collected from the primary source of the legislation. The result of this research is that the statement of khilaf has legality, it is based on Jurisprudence No. 3901 K / Pdt / 1985 jo Article 189 Paragraph (1) of Indonesian criminal procedure law. However, this oversight letter needs to be verified in front of the court to be valid evidence, but this letter of error is not a deletion of a criminal offense, because the culpability of the defendant has justified the crime he committed. Such recognition, cannot make it free from the crime that has been committed.Keywords: Legality, Letter of Statement, Criminal Justice System

The offence of controlling or coercive behaviour came into effect in England and Wales in December 2015, and related offences have since been enacted in Scotland and Ireland. To date, there has been almost no empirical evaluation of the operationalisation of the new English and Welsh offence. This article fills that gap by analysing media reports relating to 107 individuals convicted of controlling or coercive behaviour, providing a profile of offenders and victims (gender and age), the types of abusive behaviours offenders engaged in and how the cases progressed through the criminal justice system (manner of conviction, sentencing outcomes). Media reporting of these cases is also discussed. The results suggest that the offence is (appropriately) operationalised in a highly gendered manner, that it has captured a diverse range of behaviours that would not previously have been considered criminal, and that media reports of this form of domestic violence have not demonstrated the negativity towards victims identified in previous studies. Further research of primary data is required to confirm these findings.
