THE LEGAL POWER OF PARTY COURT RULINGS IN RESOLVING INTERNAL PARTY DISPUTES RELATING TO THE EXISTENCE OF CIVIL SUITS IN THE STATE COURTS

Abstract

The Party Court is an internal political party settlement institution formed by the political party itself. The party court is an independent institution and is outside the political party management structure. The Party Court is regulated in Article 32 of Law Number 2 of 2011 concerning Amendments to Law Number 2 of 2008 concerning Political Parties. The existence of the party court is designed to examine and decide internal political party disputes whose decisions are final and binding on both parties to the case. This research discusses the legal strength of party court decisions in resolving internal party disputes in relation to civil lawsuits in the District Court. This research aims to analyze and examine the legal strength of Party Court decisions in resolving internal party disputes in relation to civil lawsuits in the District Court. This research was carried out using normative juridical research methods, searching and collecting legal materials through literature study. Legal materials are then identified, classified, systematized according to the object studied and analyzed qualitatively juridically. The research results found that the Party Court had not been maximal in resolving internal disputes with the provisions of Article 33 which had implications for the strength of the Party Court's decisions.
