AbstractArticle 281 letter c of the latest draft of the 2019 Criminal Code Draft states that everyone unlawfully records, publishes directly, or permits publication of anything that could affect the impartiality of judges in a court sentenced to a maximum of 1 year in prison. Other actions that fall into the contempt of court category are being disrespectful towards judges or trials or attacking the integrity or impartiality of judges in court hearings. Likewise with the provisions of Article 282 of the 2019 Criminal Code Bill, there are two types of criminal acts that threaten advocates in the article. First, enter into an agreement with the opposing client if he knows or rightly suspects that the act could harm the client's interests. Second, influencing clerks, surrogates, bailiffs, witnesses, interpreters, investigators, public prosecutors, or judges in a case, with or without compensation. Someone can be considered violating if they meet the contempt of court offense, namely; (a) does not comply with court orders or judges' decisions issued for the benefit of the judicial process; (b) being disrespectful towards judges or trials or attacking the integrity or impartiality of judges in court hearings; (c) and illegally record, publish directly, or allow to be published anything that could affect the impartiality of the judge in a court of law. The editorial of the article needs to be clarified, for example related to what is meant by disrespectful actions or attacking the integrity of judges so as not to cause multiple interpretations in its application. So there is the potential for criminalization of those who criticize or broadcast information, thus affecting the independence of judges. There is concern that the contempt of court article or contempt of the court in the Criminal Code Bill has the potential to become a rubber article. The offense contempt of court is already regulated in the Criminal Code, but the concept of the contempt of court in the Criminal Code Bill has a different interpretation which is even more targeted at judicial critics.Keywords: contempt of court; criminal law; legal reform AbstrakPasal 281 huruf c draf terbaru RUU KUHP 2019 menyatakan, setiap orang secara melawan hukum merekam, mempublikasikan secara langsung, atau membolehkan untuk dipublikasikan segala sesuatu yang dapat mempengaruhi sifat tidak memihak hakim dalam sidang pengadilan dipidana penjara paling lama 1 tahun. Tindakan lain yang masuk dalam kategori contempt of court yakni bersikap tidak hormat terhadap hakim atau persidangan atau menyerang integritas atau sifat tidak memihak hakim dalam sidang pengadilan. Demikian juga dengan ketentuan Pasal 282 RUU KUHP 2019, ada dua jenis tindak pidana yang mengancam advokat di pasal tersebut. Pertama, mengadakan kesepakatan dengan pihak lawan klien jika mengetahui atau sepatutnya menduga bahwa perbuatan tersebut dapat merugikan kepentingan kliennya. Kedua, mempengaruhi panitera, panitera pengganti, juru sita, saksi, juru bahasa, penyidik, penuntut umum, atau hakim dalam perkara, dengan atau tanpa imbalan. Seseorang bisa dianggap melanggar bila memenuhi delik contempt of court, yakni; (a) tidak mematuhi perintah pengadilan atau penetapan hakim yang dikeluarkan untuk kepentingan proses peradilan; (b) bersikap tidak hormat terhadap hakim atau persidangan atau menyerang integritas atau sifat tidak memihak hakim dalam sidang pengadilan; (c) dan secara melawan hukum merekam, mempublikasikan secara langsung, atau membolehkan untuk dipublikasikan segala sesuatu yang dapat mempengaruhi sifat tidak memihak hakim dalam sidang pengadilan. Redaksional dari pasal tersebut perlu diperjelas, misalnya terkait dengan apa yang dimaksud tindakan tidak hormat atau menyerang integritas hakim sehingga tidak menimbulkan multitafsir dalam penerapannya. Sehingga ada potensi kriminalisasi terhadap pihak-pihak yang mengkritik atau menyiarkan informasi, sehingga memengaruhi independensi hakim. Muncul kekhawatiran pasal contempt of court atau penghinaan terhadap pengadilan dalam RUU KUHP berpotensi jadi pasal karet. Delik contempt of court memang sudah diatur dalam KUHP, namun konsep contempt of court dalam RUU KUHP memiliki tafsir berbeda yang justru lebih menyasar pengkritik peradilan.Kata kunci: contempt of court; hukum pidana; legal reform

This paper discusses the issue of negligent rape and liability for unreasonable belief in the victim`s consent in the context of Croatian criminal law. Modern rape law presents many challenges to both lawmakers and judges, with criminalizing negligence being only one of those challenges. This became more interesting in Croatia after amendments to the Criminal Code in 2011 (in effect since 2013), that criminalized unreasonable mistake of facts in the crime of rape. Croatian rape law has undergone significant changes related to these amendments. However, this paper focuses only on the aspect of unreasonable mistake of consent, this being both the most controversial and of great practical importance. The first section describes the elements of rape according to the Croatian Criminal Code along with an interpretation of those elements in the jurisprudence of the Croatian Supreme Court. Special attention is placed on the problem of mens rea and (un)reasonable belief in consent. The discussion also identifies the reasons for reform and the impact of the Sexual Offences Act of England and Wales (2003), which served as a model for Croatian legislators. The second section analyzes the results of research conducted by Croatian judges on the relevant status of the mistake of facts defense, as well as the importance of the victim`s resistance in terms of achieving a conviction, with special regard to the rate of rape convictions in Croatian law. The third section reviews comparative regional laws (Slovenia, Serbia, and Montenegro) with the goal of positioning the new Croatian rape law in a regional context. The last section discusses the necessity of criminalization of the negligent form of rape from the perspective of trends and standards created in Croatian theory and jurisprudence in the years prior to this amendment of the law.

The idea of criminalization of fraudulent acts by advocates in the judicial process has received public attention, especially from advocates. The criminal law norms regarding fraudulent acts by advocates in the Criminal Code Bill (CCB) raise many questions from the point of view of the criminalization policy. This study aims to analyze the criminalization policy against these acts in the CCB. This study is a juridical-normative study with descriptive-analytical methods. The discussion concluded that fraudulent acts by advocates in the form of “playing two feet” and actions “influencing parties in the law enforcement process with or without compensation” are actions that are not following the fundamental values prevailed by the public and also considered punishable. This arrangement aims to protect clients who request legal assistance services. The formulation of this regulation then becomes regulated to complement the criminal law norms related to the existing advocate profession. However, from the aspect of offense formulation, there are still things that need to be addressed so as not to cause multiple interpretations during its implementation, especially in relation to Article 282 of the CCB. AbstrakGagasan mengenai kriminalisasi terhadap perbuatan curang oleh advokat dalam proses peradilan mendapat perhatian masyarakat, terutama dari kalangan advokat. Norma hukum pidana mengenai perbuatan curang oleh advokat dalam RUU KUHP menimbulkan banyak pertanyaan dari sudut pandang kebijakan kriminalisasi. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebijakan kriminalisasi terhadap perbuatan tersebut dalam RUU KUHP. Kajian ini merupakan penelitian yuridis-normatif dengan metode analisis yang bersifat deskriptif analitis. Pembahasan di antaranya menyimpulkan bahwa perbuatan curang oleh advokat dalam bentuk perbuatan “main dua kaki” dan perbuatan “mempengaruhi pihak-pihak dalam proses penegakan hukum dengan atau tanpa imbalan” merupakan perbuatan yang tidak sesuai dengan nilai-nilai fundamental yang berlaku dalam masyarakat dan dianggap oleh masyarakat patut untuk dihukum. Pengaturan ini bertujuan untuk melindungi klien yang meminta jasa pendampingan hukum. Rumusan pengaturan ini kemudian menjadi diatur untuk melengkapi norma hukum pidana terkait profesi advokat yang ada selama ini. Namun dari aspek formulasi delik, masih ada yang perlu dibenahi agar tidak menimbulkan multitafsir saat penerapannya, khususnya terkait dengan Pasal 282 RUU KUHP.

The definition of person and non-person always change through legal history. Long time ago, law did not recognize the personality of slaves. Recently, it accepted non-human legal subject as legitimate person before the law. This article examines sufficient conditions for being person in the eye of law according to its particular purposes, and then, analyses the meaning of legal person in criminal law. In order to do that, scientific methodology that is adopted in this research is doctrinal legal research combined with philosophical approach. Some theories regarding person and legal person were analysed, and then the concept of person was associated with the accepted definition of legal person that is adopted in the latest Indonesian drafted criminal code. From the study that has been done, can be construed that person in criminal law concerned with norm adressat of the rule, as the author of the acts or omissions, and not merely the holder of rights. It has to be someone or something with the ability to think rationally and the ability to be responsible for the choices he/she made. Drafted penal code embraces human and corporation as its norm adressat. Corporation defined with broad meaning of collectives.

Discontinuation of proceedings under Article 59a of the Criminal Code is a new institution in Polish criminal law. This article discusses selected issues relating to the premises for the application of Article 59a of the Criminal Code in practice. In view of the use by the legislator in Article 59a of the Criminal Code of concepts with vague meanings, their possible interpretations were proposed. It has been suggested that a rephrasing of the provision in question should be considered, in order to ensure the possibility of applying the said institution to a wider range of misdemeanours, as compensatory discontinuation is intended by the legislator to fulfil the redress function of proceedings and ensure the effectiveness and speed of criminal proceedings

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.
