Lex Patrimonium

This research examines the civil liability of a parent company for unlawful acts committed by its subsidiary within a corporate group structure in Indonesia, with particular emphasis on the application of the single economic entity and piercing the corporate veil doctrines. This research adopts a doctrinal legal research method with a descriptive-analytical approach, relying on statutory analysis, legal doctrines, and case studies, namely Supreme Court Decision Number 89 PK/Pdt/2010 and Serang District Court Decision Number 30/Pdt.G/2022/PN Srg.

Disparitas Putusan Hakim Dalam Menentukan Keabsahan Klausul Non-Kompetisi Pada Perjanjian Kerahasiaan (Studi Kasus Gugatan Wanprestasi Terhadap Eks Pekerja Pt Foom Lab Global), Winda Octaviani Fadilah, Togi M.P. Pangaribuan

Lex Patrimonium

This study analyzes the validity of Non-Competition Clauses in Non-Disclosure Agreements through judicial disparities in cases involving former PT Foom Lab Global employees. The normative framework is built upon Articles 1320, 1337, and 1338 of the Indonesian Civil Code, freedom of work laws, and trade secret protection. The study distinguishes standard confidentiality obligations from Non-Competition Clauses, which require strict validity testing due to their restrictive nature on workers' rights. First-instance findings reveal conflicting reasoning: Decision No. 168 voided the clause based on freedom of work, whereas Decisions No. 155 and No. 666 upheld it based on freedom of contract and …

Standar Ganti Rugi Materil Dalam Kasus Perbuatan Melawan Hukum Pada Hewan Di Indonesia Berdasarkan Kasus Blackout Pln Pada Putusan Pengadilan Negeri Nomor 09/Pdt.G.S/2019/Pn Jkt Slt, Nathania Debora Siagian, Rosa Agustina

Lex Patrimonium

This study examines the standard of material compensation for pet deaths due to unlawful acts in Indonesian law, using a case study of District Court Decision No. 09/PDT.G.S/2019/PN JKT Sel, which rejected a claim for the death of four koi fish due to a power outage by PLN. Through doctrinal legal research with case and comparative law approaches, this study finds that Indonesian law still categorizes animals as movable objects, limiting compensation to provable economic loss, without considering emotional value. The court ruled that the power outage was not an unlawful act due to lack of fault, thus limiting PLN’s …

This study aims to examine whether unilateral cancellation of life insurance contracts by insurers constitutes an unlawful act under Indonesian civil law and to analyze judicial considerations in resolving such disputes. This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches through the analysis of legislation, legal doctrines, and …

The legal issues examined in this study focus on two main aspects: first, whether the prevailing laws and regulations in Indonesia concerning the recognition of children have adequately accommodated the best interests of the child; and second, whether …

Lex Patrimonium

The Board of Directors, as a corporate organ, holds full authority and responsibility for

the management and administration of the company’s business activities, including the

management of corporate finances; therefore, every policy decision taken may give rise

to legal consequences if it causes losses to the company or other parties. Corporate law

recognizes the Business Judgment Rule as a form of legal protection for Directors with

respect to business decisions made in good faith, with due care, and based on adequate

information; however, this principle is not absolute and cannot be invoked to justify

unlawful conduct. This research aims to …

Lex Patrimonium

Disputes over the possession of buildings often originate from preliminary sale and purchase agreements that fail to result in a lawful transfer of rights. Legal issues arise when a down payment sale agreement is declared null and void due to the buyer’s failure to fulfill payment obligations, while physical possession of the seller’s property is continuously maintained without a valid legal basis. This article aims to analyze the legal standing of down payment sale agreements in relation to the transfer of rights over land and buildings, the status of possession following the nullification of the agreement, and the legal qualification …

Lex Patrimonium

This study examines whether PT Adhi Persada Properti (PT APP) qualifies as a good-faith purchaser under a Land Sale and Purchase Binding Agreement (Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli/PPJB) and is therefore entitled to legal protection in a dispute culminating in Indonesian Supreme Court Decision No. 524 B/Pdt.Sus-Arbt/2024. The study employs a normative juridical method, applying statutory, conceptual/doctrinal, and case-based approaches through an analysis of BANI Surabaya Arbitration Award No. 64/ARB/BANI-SBY/II/2023, Bekasi District Court Decision No. 531/Pdt.Sus-Arb/2023/PN Bks, and Supreme Court Decision No. 524 B/Pdt.Sus-Arbt/2024.

The Other Right To Counsel: The Civil Guarantee In State Constitutions, Dmitry Bam 2026 University of Maine School of Law

The Other Right To Counsel: The Civil Guarantee In State Constitutions, Dmitry Bam

Maine Law Review

When most people speak of the right to counsel, they speak in the singular. After the Supreme Court’s seminal decision in Gideon v. Wainwright, the right to counsel in criminal prosecutions has become one of our most cherished fundamental rights. It is a right ingrained in our culture. Even children can recite the mantra that the accused have the right to a lawyer, and if they can’t afford a lawyer, one will be provided to them free of charge. It is no surprise, then, that our constitutional focus is trained on the criminal defendant’s right to counsel. After all, there …

Direct Representation And Negotiorum Gestio In Scots Law, Jonathan Brown 2026 Louisiana State University Law Center

Direct Representation And Negotiorum Gestio In Scots Law, Jonathan Brown

Journal of Civil Law Studies

The Scottish Court of Session recognized, in 1887, that “it is a frequent case, if a man is not able to manage his affairs, and has a relative who is willing to take the responsibility, there are many instances in which, without their coming to the court… the management goes on with his assistance.” This being an arguably frequent occurrence has not resulted in it being a commonly litigated occurrence, and the topic of law engaged by this state of affairs—negotiorum gestio—is critically understudied within Scotland (and, arguably, other Civilian and mixed legal systems). Like Louisiana, Scotland is a ‘mixed’ …
