The term conspiring to commit criminal acts in Article 15 of PTPK Act cannot refer to existing norms under Article 88 of the KUHP. The criminal act which is to conspire to commit such acts within PTPK Act has been regulated within the Indonesian legal system and recognized by law enforcers. However, the lack of elaboration and clarity towards this type of criminal act in the PTPK Law has hindered law enforcers from utilizing Article 15 of the PTPK Act to combat corruption. The Constitutional Court has attempted to resolve the legal uncertainty of Article 15 of the PTPK Act, however this has been proven to become burdensome for law enforcers in applying the criminal justifications of conspiracy under the scope of Article 15 of the PTPK Act. The criminal act which is to conspire to commit such acts within PTPK Act has been regulated within the Indonesian legal system and recognized by law enforcers.

According to Moeljatno, Criminal Law is a part of a country’s legal system that prohibits certain acts with the threat of sanction for those who break said laws, determines when and in what cases such punishments should be imposed upon those who commit said acts and determines precisely how punishments should be carried out in the event that a person is accused of such acts. This paper will analyse Constitutional Court Decision No. 77/PUU-XII/2014 and Decision No. 21/PUU-XII/2014 regarding Criminal Law reform. Looking to the theory of procedural criminal law, an indictment of cumulative charges of money laundering requires that the underlying predicate offences be proven. If, for example, the predicate offence is corruption, the corruption must be proven as multiple crimes have been committed by the same suspect, namely corruption leading to money laundering. the Decision of  the Pretrial Judge of  the Court    of South Jakarta, Sarpin Rizaldi, and Constitution Court Decision No. 21/PUU- XII/2014 on the review of Article 77 of Act No. 8 Year 1981 concerning the Law of Criminal Procedure broadened the range of pretrial objects and greatly affected the principles of  formal criminal law.

This article is devoted to the analysis of positions of the article 375 of Criminal Code of Ukraine, which recently kept the action, while Constitutional Court of Ukraine did not make decision about it’s unconstitutionality. In work we analyzed the Constitutional Court’s decisions and practice, analyzed possible options for criminalization and decriminalization in Ukrainian criminal law. The practice of legal application about article 375 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, exactly, the rendering by a judge of a knowingly unjust decision. The focus is on the fact that the courts are deciding these cases, in some aspects, they understand the scope of the named norm of criminal law differently, which leads to different enforcement. In this regard, we investigated diametrically opposed positions of reputable scientists regarding this norm and possible options of its new edition. Authorities also disagree with the separate opinion of the judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, in regard to contradictions of the constitutional norms, which regulate the process of adopting laws to declare them unconstitutional, and the legal force of such decisions. The practice of the European Court of Human Rights is also an important part of the work, which has repeatedly noted a similar problem in the legal system of Ukraine. Therefore, apart from the constitutionality of the norm of rendering a court decision in an inappropriate manner, the work of the authors includes an important discussion of the systemic gap that exists in the context of the process of adoption and/or rejection of the law. It should also be noted that the court practice regarding article 375 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine is quite varied, which today does not make it possible to form some unified and uncontroversial approaches asto whatrole the existence of the Criminal Code's article on a judge's rendering of an unjust decision in the relevant version has had for some time. Summarizing the main points, we believe that the legislator should avoid ambiguous and controversial formulations in the disposition of the articles of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in future. For an effective solution of this problem there is a project, which is currently being worked on and which is called to impose liability for rendering an invalid verdict, but to do it in those kind of form, so that the body of constitutional jurisdiction would not have any claims against it in the context of unconstitutionality. Exactly this legal balance will allow us to speak about the closeness to the sphere of criminal law to the principles and standards of the rule of law, that are inherent in most states with a developed legal system.

Summary The paper deals with the changes in the centralized (Kelsenian) model of constitutional review resulting from a state’s membership of the EU, which unequivocally demonstrates the decomposition of the classic paradigm of constitutional judiciary. The main point raised in the paper is that European integration has fundamentally influenced on the four above-mentioned basic elements of the Kelsenian model of constitutional review of legislation, which are the following: the assumption of the hierarchical construction of a legal system; the assumption of the supreme legal force of the constitution as the primary normative act of a given system; a centralised model of reviewing hierarchical conformity of legal norms; coherence of the system guaranteed by a constitutional court’s power to declare defectiveness of a norm and the latter’s derogation. All its fundamental elements have evolved, i.e. the hierarchy of the legal system, the overriding power of the constitution, centralized control of constitutionality, and the erga omnes effect of the ruling on the hierarchical non-conformity of the norms. It should be noted that over the last decade the dynamics of these changes have definitely gained momentum. This has been influenced by several factors, including the “great accession” of 2004, the pursuit of formal constitutionalization of the EU through the Constitutional Treaty, the compromise solutions adopted in the Treaty of Lisbon, the entry into force of the Charter, and the prospect of EU accession to the ECHR. The CJEU has used these factors to deepen the tendencies towards decentralization of constitutional control, by atomising national judicial systems and relativizing the effects of constitutional court rulings within national legal systems. The end result is the observed phenomenon, if not of marginalisation, then at least of a systemic shift in the position of constitutional courts, which have lost their uniqueness and have become “only ones of many” national courts.

Memformalisasikan syariat Islam baik dalam ranah kehidupan bermasyarakat dan sosial, dalam bernegara dan berbangsa tidak jarang terjadi perdebatan, baik perdebatan sosial-politik maupun keagamaan. Perdebatan itu di samping menyangkut memahami ajaran agama dan hubungannya dengan negara-bangsa, juga dalam memahami sistem hukum yang ada dalam negera, lebih-lebih bahwa negera menganut sistem hukum positif yang lebih banyak dipengaruhi oleh hukum barat. Gagasan pemberlakuan hukum pidana Islam tidak serta merta dapat dijalankan dengan baik tanpa adanya legislasi dan pembentukan hukum pidana Islam materil sebagai hukum positif yang berlaku. Juga bahwa hukum pidana Islam adalah hukum publik yang membutuhkan kekuasaan negara baik dalam pembentukannya maupun dalam penegakannya. Dalam hubungannya dengan legislasi dan pembentukan hukum (qanun syariat Islam), maka hal yang sangat menarik adalah bagaimana menentukan bentuk jarimah dan uqubatnya baik yang termasuk dalam kategori hudud, qisas, dan takzir sebagai bagian dari sistem penegakan hukum syariat Islam. Takzir as a Punishment in Islamic Criminal Law The formalizing of Islamic Sharia Law both in the realm of social and community life and also in the state and national level. This issue is frequently debatable, both in socio-political as well as in religious matter. The debate is not only about understanding religious teachings and their relationship with the nation, but also about understanding the legal system applicable in the country, especially the country which apply a positive legal system that influenced by western law. The idea of enforcing Islamic Criminal Law cannot be carried out properly without the existence of legislation and the establishment of Islamic Criminal Law as a positive law that enforced. In addition, Islamic Criminal Law is a public law that requires state power both in its formation and in its enforcement. In relation to legislation and the formation of law (Qanun Sharia), the very interesting part is how to determine the form of rahmah and uqubat both are included in the hudud, qisas and takzir categories as part of the Islamic Sharia law enforcement system.

The new European framework for the protection of personal data on freedom, security and justice is embodied, among other instruments, in EU Directive 2016/680 on the protection of natural persons with regards to the processing of personal data by competent authorities for criminal law purposes. This Directive protects fundamental rights, such as the right to the protection of personal data, as well as ensuring a high level of public security by facilitating the exchange of personal data between competent authorities within the Union, with the establishment of a legal system on the transfer of personal data.

In all areas of the legal world there are higher aspirations, which represent legal values to be protected, like the justice, the common good and legal security stand out. The present work was proposed to analyze if the Ecuadorian Legislator, in its process of construction and promulgation of the criminal law regulating against the unfair competition, incorporated these three values into it. Regrettably, the results show an apparent absence of the three legal values in criminal law, leaving legal operators at a disadvantage in view of the need to control this type of crime and society, awaiting compliance. Through an exercise of legal hermeneutics, the study starts from a real problem in the Ecuadorian legal system of the criminal law against of the unfair competition, which demands to be discussed in the search for the State to take the necessary measures to solve this problem.
