AIPJ Vacancy: Consultant for Research and Policy Drafting on Implementation, Jakarta

The Australian Government has been providing support for the legal and justice sector in Indonesia for more than 10 years. In 2011, Australia Indonesia Partnership for Justice (AIPJ) started a five-year new program.

Entering the third implementation year, AIPJ focuses on the effort to “Fulfilling Rights,” which has been defined to include the rights to obtain legal identity (birth certificate, marriage certificate and divorce certificate), to be judged by a fair, clean and accessible court system and to obtain information (about legal proceeding).

In 2003, the Supreme Court developed a comprehensive blue print for reform of the court system with assistance from members of civil society. A Judicial Reform Team (‘JRT’) appointed by the Honourable Chief Justice was established to ensure the implementation of the reform blueprint.  In accordance with SK KMA No.194/KMA/SK/XI/2014, the organizational structure of the JRT comprises the Steering Committee, an Advisory Team, Coordinators, and Working Groups.

Since 2006 Australian Government has been supporting the court to court partnership in reforming case management. In 2012, several officials of the Mahkamah Agung attended visit study to the Federal Court of Australia in accordance to case management business process re-engineering in the Mahkamah Agung. Those officials are grouped under the BPR Working Group assigned by the Coordinator of The Judicial Reform Team. The Working Group has managed the identification of problems/issues within the existing case management and found its solution or recommendation.

Several ideas and recommendations related to the case management business process re-engineering has been implemented during 2013 and 2014, i.e.: Chief Justice Decree No.119/2013 relating to new system of case examination, MA Circular Letter No.1/2014 relating to the electronic document of case file, case file stock opname/case file audit, CJ Decree No.215/2014 relating to the time limitation of case handling. By the end 2014 those initiatives considered successful indicated by reduced case back log.

Another recommendation is the implementation of decision secured printing featured. This idea came up based on problems and issues related the authentication of judgment/decision documents. Several incidents happened when verdict/sentence in the decision document received by the parties/defendant is different from the Mahkamah Agung decision document, causing problems in the execution. The BPR Working group has identified the needs installing new feature in current case management system that would be ensuring the decision document and its copy are authentic.

By now, there are at least 2 options about this feature. First, based on comparison study to the Constitutional Court, security printing feature can be installed in the printer. But this option is not too efficient due those kind of printer are truly expensive. Second, security printing feature can be installed in existing case management system information. This option should be more efficient and effective.

But the problem is not related to that technical issue. The BPR Working Group needs to clarify possible constraint by some existing regulation. This study will answer what is possible constraint that may rise and what steps should be taken.

AIPJ is looking for to explore opportunity and implementing feature on decision secured printing.
