Abstract
Post-divorce and after a final ruling on child
custody, it is expected that the Panel of Judges will have the courage to make
a legal breakthrough in the form of judicial discretion. This step could
involve issuing an order to the relevant authority, such as a bailiff, to
assist the party awarded custody in taking the child from the custody of the
opposing party. This approach is deemed necessary as a child is not an object
that can be executed like property, and specific execution concerning children
is not yet regulated by existing law. By adopting this measure, it is hoped
that legal gaps can be addressed and prolonged conflicts that might negatively
affect the child's psychological well-being can be avoided. This also aligns
with the principles of a simple, swift, and cost-effective judicial process,
which is a manifestation of the principle of legal justice.
