Deposit of compensation at the Court which is carried out in land acquisition for the public interest is one of the solutions to accelerate the development process. The disagreement of the parties regarding compensation has made the agency managing the project use a consignment mechanism to solve this compensation problem. Therefore, this research is focused on 3 (three) main problems. First, what is the process of assessing and determining compensation for land acquisition for the construction of the Padang-Pekanbaru toll road on Jalan Padang-Sicincin? Second, what is the process of filing an objection to the determination of the form and / or amount of compensation at the Pariaman District Court? Third, how is the implementation of deposit for compensation in land acquisition for the construction of the Padang-Pekanbaru toll road on the Padang-Sicincin road? This type of research is empirical juridical legal research and to answer the above problems, this study uses primary data and secondary data. Primary data is obtained through field research, while secondary data is obtained from tracing laws and regulations and decisions of Constitutional Court judges. The data analysis was conducted in a descriptive qualitative manner. The results showed that the process of appraising and determining compensation for land acquisition was carried out starting from the process of appointing the appraisal team, the assessment of compensation by the appraisal team, deliberation, and the process of determining the compensation. The appointment of an appraisal team is determined by the Chief Executive of Land Acquisition using the direct procurement method. The appraiser makes an appraisal using the Fair Replacement Value and refers to the SPI 306 Technical Guidelines. The results of the appraisal are used as the basis for deliberations to determine compensation. The fact is that the deliberations are carried out as it should be, but the price set by the Appraiser (Appraisal) is as if only a final price that must be agreed upon by the entitled Party, even though the price recommended by the Appraisal is a price that is the price for negotiating with the community land owner. The process for filing an objection to the determination of the form and / or amount of compensation at the Pariaman District Court is in accordance with the Supreme Court Regulation No.3 of 2016 and is a form of legal protection for land rights owners. The implementation of land’s deposit compensation at the Pariaman District Court is carried out in accordance with the Supreme Court Regulation Number 3 of 2016 and in the Compensation of the Damages awaits a court process that has permanent legal force so that the money can be given to the party entitled to receive it

RESUMO:O artigo propõe um modelo de inferência de princípios jurídicos a partir de normas jurídicas, por meio da reconstrução de entimemas presentes em decisões judiciais. A ideia básica é que o principio inferido é a premissa normativa faltante de um entimema empregado em decisão judicial que aplica determinada norma. A decisão seria, assim, uma forma de endosso autoritativo do conteúdo do princípio. O modelo é aplicado sobre a inferência do princípio de presunção de inocência na decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal acerca da possibilidade de execução de sentença penal condenatória antes de seu trânsito em julgado.  O artigo discute implicações desse modelo de inferência para o debate entre positivismo e anti-positivismo.  ABSTRACT:The paper proposes a model to infer legal principles from norms, consisting in the reconstruction of enthymemes in judicial decisions. The basic idea is that the inferred principle is the missing normative premise of an enthymeme employed by a judicial decision, which applies the legal norm at stake. The decision would then be a form of endorsement of the content of the legal principle. The model is illustrated by the inference of the content of the principle of presumption of innocence in the Brazilian Supreme Court Decision on the possibility of execution of a criminal sentence before its final revision by the superior courts. The paper discusses the implications of the model within the positivism/antipositivism debate.

This article discusses the manner in which the Supreme Court of Canada assessed damages in Semelhago v. Paramadevan, a dispute arising from a breach of contract for sale of land. The author analyzes the decision as it affects established real estate law and principles governing judicial remedies available in contracts. Before Semelhago, specific performance was normally granted as all land was presumed to have no substitute and therefore, damages were considered to be inadequate. As a result of the decision in Semelhago, the plaintiff, whether vendor or purchaser, is now required to adduce evidence that the specific property in question is unique. The plaintiff retains the right to request specific examine performance or damages and can make her election any time up until the date of the trial. The author discusses when the value of the property should be assessed and the deductions that should be included in the final judgment. He also outlines the confusion and uncertainty this judgment has created and how the plaintiff is overcompensated by using thisformula. A solution to this dilemma is presented.

The implementation of court in Indonesia has not fulfilled as expected because any parties involving in court has a lack of capacity, consistency, and integrity to provide legal service seriously. Some people assume that court services are not still optimal. To settle the problems, the Supreme Court just has officially issued Regulation No. 1 of 2019 regarding the Administration of Cases and Legal Proceedings in Courts via Electronic Means on 8 August 2019. This regulation is believed as an appropriate solution to face those problems.

To what extent do informal networks shape the decisions of the Supreme Court of the Philippines? Though often raised in the Philippines, this question has never been studied empirically. To answer it, we constructed a set of social network variables to assess how informal ties, based on university connections and work affiliations, may have influenced the court’s decisions between 1986 and 2015 in 47 politically high-profile cases. Providing statistically significant evidence for the effects of political influence (presidential appointments) and hierarchical pressure (the vote of the Chief Justice) on related networks, our analysis suggests a continuing tension on the Supreme Court bench between professionalism and informality. Because the findings advance both theoretical and empirical understanding of larger issues at the intersection of courts and society throughout the region, we recommend more attention to the role of judicial networks, external to the courts as well as within them.

Following hypothesis of Andrew Watson, American professor of Psychiatry and Law, the author analyses certain psychological impacts on behavior of judges and examines the relationship between their idiosyncrasies and their judicial decisions. The survey encompasses the judges of Criminal Department of the Supreme Court of Cassation of the Republic of Serbia and, also, for comparative reasons, the judges of Criminal Department of the First Basic Court in Belgrade. Considering the main issues there is no great discrepancy between answers given by the judges of the Supreme Court and those of the Basic Court. Most responses of the Serbian judges deviate from Watson's conclusions, namely: they do not admit that they feel frustrated due to heavy caseloads, the significant majority of judges are reluctant to acknowledge their prejudices and influence of biases on their ruling, the significant majority of judges are not burdened with the idea of possible misuse of their discretion, they nearly unanimously deny that public opinion and media pressure affect their rulings, etc. Generally, the judges in Serbia are not willing to admit that they cannot always overcome their own subjectivities.
