Indonesia’S Upstream Petroleum Governance Reform: Which Model Is Constitutional Enough?, Afghania Dwiesta

Indonesia Law Review

The Indonesian Constitutional Court abruptly annulled provisions regarding the function of BP Migas as state representative in managing upstream oil and gas operations in Indonesia, declaring it unconstitutional. Apparently, the Court was convinced that exercising absolute state control over hydrocarbon operations would give the utmost benefit to the people. This research argues that in achieving such goals, a state must be able to create strong administrative infrastructure and regulatory regime capable of controlling and supervising hydrocarbon operations in accordance with both national and international oil fields. Using a comparative study method with secondary data collection, this research observes Norway’s, Mexico’s, …

Pengaruh Konstitusi Berketuhanan Dalam Praktik Ketatanegaraan (Perbandingan Antara Indonesia Dengan Berbagai Negara), Ghunarsa Sujatnika

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

One debate that has been going on for a long time and has not yet been completed is related to the relationship between religion and the state. There are two general opinions on this matter, namely that which separates religion and state life and vice versa argues that religion is an integral part of the life of the state. One way to see how the relationship between God and religion and the state can be seen in the country's constitution, whether the constitution regulates "God" and religion or not. After that, it can be found how the influence of the …

This research aims (i) to elaborate about a central government plan on repositioning the structure of inspectorate; (ii) to explain responses of some inspectorate officers regarding the plan; and (iii) to provide suggestions on the adjustment plan that should be taken into consideration by the central government. This research found that, different with the public perception, the plan is not intended to reposition all the inspectorates, rather to inspectorates attached to local governments. These inspectorates are designed to be what the-called ‘kuasi vertical institution’. Meaning, it has a mixed character of both central and local government institution. This initiation increases …

The protection of minority shareholders within the company is one importance thing given the likelihood of their rights being violated by the actions of the board of directors. In the concept of the company, shareholders are passive parties who do not participate in the management of the company, thus causing the shareholders vulnerable to deviations. The rights of the company's shareholders are very important for the concept of Corporate Governance. Shareholders are not corporate organs because the company's organs are General Meeting of Shareholders (GMS). The Board of Directors may decide to run the company as long as it does …

Standing To Appeal At The Federal Circuit: Appellants, Appellees, And Intervenors, Matthew J. Dowd, Jonathan Stroud

Catholic University Law Review

The America Invents Act of 2011 created three administrative patent review regimes that have flooded the rechristened Patent Trial and Appeal Board with almost 7,000 new matters in just under five years. The flood of matters—primarily, inter partes reviews (IPRs)—has led to more than 1,000 appeals to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Federal Circuit from administrative proceedings, eclipsing any other forum of origin. With the flood of administrative appeals, questions of first instance on appellate standing have arisen, resulting in a handful of important panel decisions.

While the other regional Courts of Appeals have largely adopted legal tests, standards, …

Brackeen V. Zinke, Bradley E. Tinker

Public Land & Resources Law Review

In 1978, Congress enacted the Indian Child Welfare Act to counter practices of removing Indian children from their homes, and to ensure the continued existence of Indian tribes through their children. The law created a framework establishing how Indian children are adopted as a way to protect those children and their relationship with their tribe. ICWA also established federal standards for Indian children being placed into non-Indian adoptive homes. Brackeen v. Zinke made an important distinction for the placement preferences of the Indian children adopted by non-Indian plaintiffs; rather than viewing the placement preferences in ICWA as based upon Indians’ …

The Rational Basis Test And Why It Is So Irrational: An Eighty-Year Retrospective, James M. Mcgoldrick Jr.

San Diego Law Review

The Rational Basis test is one of the most common and yet perhaps the most insignificant United States Supreme Court test in the history of the constitution, yet year in year out clients and lawyers will submit another brief hoping against hope that this time there might be a meaningful outcome. There will not be.

This article attempts to explain why the rational basis test is so irrational in its outcome, why basic interests are disregarded in the name of judicial respect for the legislative process, and how easy it would be for there to be a better outcome. The …
