Abstract

This article explores the evolving authority of the Constitutional Court in Indonesia as it relates to constitutional complaints filed under Article 24C Paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution. The provision empowers citizens to challenge laws or regulations that are deemed to violate the Constitution. By analyzing case law and legal scholarship, the article examines how the Court has interpreted and applied this provision over time. It investigates factors that have influenced the Court's approach, including changes in political and social dynamics, the development of constitutional jurisprudence, and the Court's own institutional growth. The analysis aims to shed light on the extent to which the Court's authority has expanded in adjudicating constitutional complaints, and the implications of this expansion for the protection of individual rights and the democratic governance of Indonesia.
