Land ownership for Indonesian citizens the result of mixed marriages without marriage agreement Indonesian citizen can only use the use rights and lease rights to buildings in the ownership of land. This study uses a normative juridical approach. It can be concluded that according to Law No. 5/1960 for Indonesian citizens, mixed marriages may own land with a status other than use rights and lease rights to buildings if there is a marriage agreement before or at the time of marriage. However, after the Constitutional Court ruling number 69 / PUU-XIII / 2015 gave a breath of fresh air for mixed marriages to still be able to receive their constitutional rights by making marriage agreements during the marriage.

AbstractIf applied in isolation from the fundamental rights of women seeking abortion services, the right to conscientious objection can render any given rights to abortion illusory, including the rights to health, life, equality and dignity that are attendant to abortion. A transformative understanding of human rights requires that the right to conscientious objection to abortion be construed in a manner that is subject to the correlative duties which are imposed on the conscientious objector, as well as the state, in order to accommodate women's reproductive health rights. In recent years, the Colombian Constitutional Court has been giving a judicial lead on the development of a right to conscientious objection that accommodates women's fundamental rights. This article reflects on one of the court's decisions and draws lessons for the African region.


Significance Iohannis had resisted Justice Minister Toader Tudorel’s request to remove Kovesi, the head of the National Anti-Corruption Directorate (DNA), but was undercut by a Constitutional Court ruling that he could only refuse on procedural grounds. A 15-year effort to remove the justice system from political interference is drawing to a close, making it far harder to subject the political elite to the rule of law. Impacts Romania may find it hard to avoid economic damage from the assault on the rule of law. The steep reverse in Europeanising this post-communist country will not easily be undone. Romania’s slide into being an illiberal and kleptocratic EU member will increase doubts about admitting similar applicant states.


Subject Mining referenda. Significance The Constitutional Court on October 11 ruled that popular consultations held by local municipalities or regions do not have veto power. This ruling is important as a series of popular consultations since 2016 have voted to suspend or cancel extractives projects, concerning both current and potential investors. The new ruling should provide greater stability for such projects but is likely to spark renewed frustration in the most affected regions. Impacts The ruling may encourage more companies to invest in the extractives sector, with positive implications for economic activity. Social unrest around extractives projects may increase with the removal of an electoral outlet for popular opposition. Environmental activism may increase with mining opponents using environmental concerns as an alternative means of halting projects. Non-state armed groups will present a continuing threat of violence and extortion for mining firms, particularly those with gold mines.

In 1998 the South African parliament voted on the issue of the use of force when effecting an arrest, in order to bring standards of practice in line with the rest of the democratic world. Four years later the law still has not been signed by the state president, largely due to protests by the ministers of Justice and Constitutional Affairs and Safety and Security. The issue has been before the Constitutional Court and in May 2002, this court did what the executive was afraid to do, striking down parts of the Section and clarifying “reasonable force”. But the court ruling still did not go as far as the legislation in protecting citizens.
