Restorative justice is a form of cases settlement beyond the court which engaged perpetrator, victim and society as condition restore after the crime. This form started to be developed in Indonesia, especially in regions which implement “adat” law consistently and have close kinship system. Restorative justice is urgently needed today, in order to reduce the number of cases and prison over capacity. The significant number of criminal cases which had been judged in the court is the main factor of prison over capacity. The prison full of criminal which had variety of crimes. The negative impact is, prison is not a shoch-therapy for the criminals, instead of after they fulfill their sentence period and become alumni of prison, they tend to re-do their crimes even worse than the previous one. This condition was the causing factor of restorative justice in the criminal law system for example, children criminals, traffic violations which had narrow impacts and can be solved by “adat” institution, with the exception for major cases or extraordinary crimes for instance drugs, planned murder, terrorism and genocide

Criminal Law in Indonesia which was ideally applied as the ultimate last weapon (ultimum remedium) in dealing with violations, has now shifted to become the main weapon (primum remedium). This is inseparable from the criminal law policy which is still oriented as a form of retaliation and punishment so that it prioritizes penal policies with a focus on imposing sanctions in the form of deprivation of liberty. Criminal law has always been used as the main weapon in solving various kinds of violations. This has led to a condition of over-criminalization which has created new problems at the applicative level. Reforming criminal law is considered very urgent to be carried out by accommodating a restorative justice approach in order to re-place criminal law as an ultimum remedium. First, the application of decriminalization policies in various laws and regulations in Indonesia. Second, the reorientation of the criminal procedural law system which gives the possibility of a criminal case settlement process out of court (afdoening buiten process). Keyword: Criminal Law; Restorative Justice; Ultimum Remedium.

Restorative justice or more precisely keadilan restoratif in the Indonesian context is based on the principle of building joint participation between perpetrators, victims, and community groups in resolving a criminal act. The problem has been that in the formulation of the laws and government regulations diversion (diversi) is carried out if a criminal act is committed by a child who is punishable by imprisonment under seven years other than that if criminal acts that were committed by a child is not a repetition of criminal acts (recidive). A research using a normative legal research method found that through legal findings or rechtsvinding (penemuan hukum), judges can formulate criminal law policies through their decisions based on mens rea. Tt is a must for judges to settle criminal cases with a child of 12-years-old age perpetrator and/or the delinguent actor is a recidive via diversion. The provisions of Indonesian criminal procedure law dicates that judges are also obliged to seek diversion towards the settlement of all criminal cases whose actions were committed by children, both those with a criminal penalty over seven years and/or recidive or those who does not included in the two categories.

The creation of the Guiding Principles on the Criminal Law of the RSFSR of 1919 is studied taking into account extremely complicated internal and external political situation in the country at the beginning of the twentieth century. Using the methods of analysis, synthesis, as well as comparative and historical method, the author determines the significance of the Guiding Principles in the law system of the young Soviet state. Some key norms of the document are examined. In particular, the definition of criminal law is analyzed and its advantages and disadvantages are identified. It is noted that the definition of a crime was formulated too broadly, and more significant steps in criminalization of different acts were made with the adoption of the RSFSR Criminal Code of 1922. It is indicated which persons were not punished according to the Guidelines. Attention is drawn to the way in which such a method of protection as necessary defense was set forth in this act. The Guiding Principles are not without certain disadvantages: for example, the institution of complicity is not sufficiently disclosed, there is lexical redundancy in the definition of the concept «planning the offence». However, the discrepancies between the main provisions covered in the Guidelines are explainable and excusable, taking into account the historical situation at the time of their adoption. The analyzed document became the basis for Russian criminal law, and some of its provisions are still relevant.

The advent of the electronic currency and the effecting of electronic payments has caused new forms of thefts and types of acquisitive crimes. The judicial investigative practice of criminal cases of embezzlement committed using bank cards and other types of electronic payments has encountered problems with the qualification of such acts. The author identifies the most common enforcement problemsand their causesby a retrospective study of judicial practice, the changing norms of the criminal law. At the same time, a ten-year period of work of the judicial investigating authorities was studied. On the basis of traditional general scientific methods of cognition, as a result of a system-legal analysis of the considered set of specific situations, the author gives an author's view of the complex of causes that cause a lack of uniformity in judicial investigative practice. Using the hermeneutic approach, the author paid special attention to the application by the courts of the interpretation of the criminal law by the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in different years. In conclusion, ways of resolving contentious issues of qualification of thefts and fraud in the field of electronic means of payment are proposed. It has been ascertained that high-quality and uniform law enforcement can provide additional clarification on the delimitation of related and competing theft from the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. It is concluded that in general, the current concept of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation does not contain contradictions with the novels of the criminal law, but can be improved. The rationale and edition of possible additions to the relevant decision of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation are given.
