The Constitutional Court Decision No. 88/PUU-XIV/2016 grants a possibility for a woman to be a candidate for Governor and Vice-Governor in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. As the only province in Indonesia where the executive leaders are only able from the royal family of the Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat, the decision then triggers a polemic among people in the region. This is due to the current governor, Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono X, does not have a son as his successor to the throne. Thus, this paper reveals institutional disputes’ settlement mechanism in the Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat Sultanate if any disputes ever appear. The outcome finds that the Sultanate has yet clear mechanism of dispute settlement among the royal family and no official institution which possesses authority to settle royal disputes. Insofar, the Sultanate has had a customary law or paugeran adat in which a female figure might taking the throne to be the Sultanah and the governor of the province. Nevertheless, the authors recommend to establish an institution to settle royal disputes for the continuation of the Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat Sultanate. Abstrak: Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi No. 88/PUU-XIV/2016 meniscayakan adanya kemungkinan untuk seorang perempuan menjadi kandidat Gubernur dan Wakil Gubernur di provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Sebagai satu-satunya pronvisi di Indonesia dimana pemegang kekuasaan eksekutif daerah hanya boleh berasal dari keturunan kerajaan Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat, keputusan tersebut nyatanya memicu polemic diantara masyarakat di daerah. Hal ini disebabkan oleh tidak adanya keturunan laki-laki dari gubernur atau sultan yang sedang menjabat saat ini, yaitu Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono X, untuk melanjutkan tahta kepemimpinan. Oleh sebab itu, artikel ini bertujuan untuk melihat mekanisme penyelesaian sengketa institusi di Keraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat jika terjadi sengketa. Hasil yang ditemukan adalah tidak adanya mekanisme penyelesaian sengketa di dalam Keraton serta tidak adanya institusi resmi yang dapat memutus dan menyelesaikan sengketa tersebut. Hingga saat ini, Keraton hanya menerapkan hukum adat atau paugeran adat dimana mengizinkan untuk seorang perempuan mengambil alih tahta dan menjadi seorang Sultanah sekaligus gubernur. Namun demikian, penulis menyarankan untuk tetap dibentuknya sebuah lembaga yang memiliki otoritas untuk menyelesaikan sengketa antar anggota Keraton guna keberlanjutan Keraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat kedepannya. Kata Kunci: Sengketa Institusi, Keraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat, Sultanah

The existence of State-Owned enterprises (SOE) as one of Indonesia’s legal entities, whereby the State owns part of all of the capital of the company has presented several legal issues. The BUMN Act that has become the basis for establishing State-Owned enterprises has become its own independent legal subject and separates itself from the wealth of the State and has adhered to the provisions of the Company Law Act so that the capital that is presented by the State to the corporation remains as the capital of the SOE and not form the State. However, existing legislations regarding State funds places the funds for SOE as being part of the State budget. This ambiguity in the status of BUMN Funds is not only found in legislations but also in two different constitutional court decisions that presents inconsistencies towards law enforcers. This clear distinction is crucial in the practice of law enforcement in Indonesia.

In a review of the constitutionality of law or policy, the Constitutional Court can take an aggressive approach or choose to take self-restraint. Theoretical justification on the Court to change or made policy derived from the judicialization of politics. Global phenomenon indicates the shift of policy-making authority towards the judiciary. Consequently, policy makers shows resistence. Such conditions forced the Court to use a number of strategies to reduce political tensions between state institutions while at the same time the Court still protect the rights of citizens. The Court uses self-restraint approach to examine policies which in realm of legislative or executive discretion. This approach is referred to by the Court as an “open(ed) legal policy”. This study elaborates on the actions carried out by the Indonesian Constitutional Court to test the constitutionality of law or policy, both in the application of the judicialization of politics nor in the judicial restraint approach. In reality, the Court uses both of these approaches on review the constitutionality of law and  policy.

In accordance with the decision of the Constitutional Court Number 97/PUU-XI/2013, the Constitutional Court is no longer authorized to resolve disputes on direct election results, because the provisions of Article 236C of Law Number 12 Year 2008 NRI are against the Constitution of 1945. Article 157 paragraph (1) Law No. 8 Year 2015 determines that the dispute settlement on direct election results become the authority of specialized judiciary. But before a specialized judiciary is formed, then the Constitutional Court is authorized to resolve disputes on direct election results. The authority of the Constitutional Court is the constitutional authority to fulfill temporary legal vacuum (rechtvakum). Therefore legislators should immediately establish a specialized judiciary which has the authority to resolve the disputes on direct election results.

Portugal was affected simultaneously by an economic, financial, and budgetary crisis. It is in this context that in 2011 the country signed an MoU on Specific Economic Policy Conditionality with the EU, the ECB, and the IMF, which prescribed cuts on social expenses in wages, pensions, and other benefits of an ‘assistentialist’ nature. The legal measures adopted in this respect focused mostly on the social security scheme and introduced changes in the legal framework for future pensions and unemployment benefits, new contributions for pensions in payment, and former non-contributory benefits, as well as cuts in pensions and benefits. Throughout the years, the President of the Republic, members of the parliament, and the Ombudsman have asked the Constitutional Court to assess many of the rules included in the State Budget Laws, arguing a violation of fundamental social rights and basic principles such as human dignity, equality, and the protection of legitimate expectations. This led to the issuance of new and important constitutional case law in Portugal, concerning mainly the assessment of legislative measures under the fundamental principles of legitimate expectations, proportionality, and ‘equal proportionality’.
