Examination of District Court Judge's Decision on Registration of Inter-Religious Marriages in Indonesia
Keywords:
Examination, Marriage, Inter-Religious, RegistrationAbstract
Marriage is one of the most important worship and human rights, Indonesia must make absolute laws governing marriage. This will change the marriage law that has been held for years by various community groups in Indonesia. Marriage is regulated by law because it is important and sacred. In terms of marriage law, differences of opinion are still referred to as a legal vacuum because most of the judges' considerations in various District Courts are centered on the following matters: (1) there are still legal limitations; (2) they have not been regulated, and (3) the law does not explicitly regulate this. This shows that the legal understanding and beliefs of judges at the first level are different from the considerations of the Constitutional Court's decision. Not only are there legal limitations, but there is also an inequality in the treatment of judges who approve interfaith marriages in certain cases, but reject other cases, which causes this unequal treatment. This shows that judges do not have specific regulations when considering marriage registration or marriage applications in court. This can lead to different interpretations. Judges who uphold marriages must have the same integrity, conviction, and understanding of the law, religion, or belief so that they do not misinterpret or misunderstand marriages from different religions.
