Abstract

A person who has committed a crime or crime can basically be charged before a court to be tried according to the crime or act committed by that person. As an institution that has prosecutorial authority, the prosecutor's office has no choice not to continue the legal process. The public prosecutor has the authority to prosecute anyone who has been named a defendant with a minimum requirement of two pieces of sufficient evidence. In its development, the implementation of the prosecutor's function as a prosecutor in court uses a new approach to resolve criminal cases more simply, easily and effectively. This can be seen with the issuance of Republic of Indonesia Prosecutor's Regulation Number 15 of 2020 concerning Termination of Prosecution Based on Restorative Justice. The problem is what is the concept of restorative justice in Prosecutor's Regulation Number 15 of 2020 concerning Termination of Prosecution Based on Restorative Justice and what is the legal certainty in Prosecutor's Regulation Number 15 of 2020 concerning Termination of Prosecution Based on Restorative Justice. This research uses normative juridical methods and a conceptual approach which is carried out by elaborating on statutory regulations related to living law using concepts, theories and doctrines developed in contemporary criminal law scholarship to produce a synthesis that shows the correlation and relevance of these regulations to the objectives of legal reform. substantive crime. Restorative justice is the resolution of criminal cases involving the perpetrator, victim, family of the perpetrator/victim, and other related parties to jointly seek a fair resolution by emphasizing restoration to the original condition, and not retaliation. The granting of authority to the prosecutor's office through the Prosecutor's Regulations does not contain legal certainty and is contrary to the authority of the prosecutor's office which originates from the law.
