ABSTRACT
Indonesian people generally buy private vehicles by
using credit facilities or making monthly payments to finance companies to own
their vehicles. Vehicles purchased on credit are bound by using fiduciary
guarantees prone to being pawned, rented out and transferred by the debtor
unilaterally. The reason was due to default so that the fiduciary guarantee
vehicle was diverted so that it could be confiscated by POLRI investigators to
be used as evidence. As a result of the unilateral transfer of the debtor, the
creditor suffers a loss, so that the creditor must be legally protected. The
purpose of this research is to find out and analyze the legal protection for
credit related to violations and diversion of vehicles based on the principle
of justice. The method in this research is qualitative research with empirical
and normative juridical approaches. Empirical juridical research prioritizes
secondary data, books, laws and regulations and examines positive legal
principles from literary data and comparative law. The fiduciary giver must be
responsible, carry out his obligations and keep the collateral object under his
control. However, in reality it does not rule out the possibility of the
Fiduciary Guarantee object changing hands or transferring control to a third
party because it is transferred by the debtor, usually due to economic factors.
The existence of Law no. 42 of 1999 concerning guarantees in Indonesia which
are lex specialis derogat legi general, is one of the legal principles which
implies that specific legal rules will override general legal rules.
Keywords: default,
unilateral transfer, legal protection, compensation lawsuit.

INTRODUCTION
Vehicles are a means of
transportation commonly used by Indonesian people to support their activities. This is a natural thing for today's modern society.
Middle and upper-class people tend to buy vehicles in cash, and middle and
upper-class people usually use credit facilities or finance companies to own
private vehicles. The high demand for transportation means that businesses in
Indonesia see it as a very promising opportunity. The market competition is so
wide, and the public's high interest in owning a vehicle encourages business
actors in Indonesia, especially in financing institutions or finance companies,
to fulfil the public's need for vehicles (Nasarudin, 2014).
Purchasing a vehicle on credit provides many benefits
and advantages for the community and for finance companies. However, the price
of one object will be higher. Even so, people in Indonesia still need the
process of buying a vehicle on credit. A fiduciary is the transfer of ownership
rights of an object based on trust, provided that the object whose ownership
rights are transferred remains in the control of the object owner. Debtors are
parties who have debts because of agreements or laws, and creditors are parties
who have debts because of agreements or laws.
Financing companies as creditors are business entities
outside banks and non-bank financial institutions specifically established to
carry out activities that are included in the business sector of financing
institutions (Junaidi & MH,
2022), so it is certain that the Financing Company will
bind fiduciary guarantees to the vehicle in question (Fahirattunisa et al.,
2022). The fiduciary guarantee itself is a guarantee right
over movable objects, both tangible and intangible and immovable objects whose
control is with the debtor and will end when the debt has been paid off.
However, quite a number of debtors do not know the concept of this guarantee,
especially fiduciaries (Sanusi et al., 2017).
The existing fiduciary guarantee institutions in
Indonesia currently make it possible for fiduciary givers to control the
collateralized object in order to carry out or carry out business activities
financed from loans using the fiduciary guarantee. In the beginning, the
objects that became fiduciary objects were limited to tangible movable property
in the form of equipment. However, in subsequent developments, objects that
become fiduciary objects include a wealth of immovable, movable objects as well
as immovable objects as stated in No. 42 of 1999 concerning Fiduciary
Guarantees (Satrio, 2002).
Fiduciary collateral objects in the form of vehicles
are generally prone to be transferred, mortgaged, or leased to other parties by
unscrupulous debtors without the approval of the creditor so that the creditor
is harmed and can potentially be criminalized. This can usually occur due to
economic factors from the debtor so that he is no longer able to carry out his
obligations to pay instalments to creditors so that the object of the fiduciary
guarantee is transferred unilaterally. With this alleged crime, the creditor
can report it to the police. With reports from the public, the vehicle that is
the object of the fiduciary guarantee can be confiscated by POLRI investigators
to be used as Evidence. The police, as investigators, have the authority to
confiscate vehicles if they are caught in the act of committing a crime and
complete the case file until it enters the court process. This is stated in
Perkap No. 8 of 2014 and the Criminal Procedure Code. In Perkap No. 8 of 2014
concerning Amendments to Perkap No. 10 of 2010 concerning Procedures for
Managing Evidence in the Environment of the Republic of Indonesia National
Police Article 1 point 5 states (PRASETIONO, 2017): "Evidence is movable or immovable objects, tangible
or intangible which have been confiscated by investigators for the purposes of
examination in the level of investigation, prosecution and examination before
the court. Based on the above background, the purpose of this study is to
identify and analyze the legal protection of creditors regarding violations and
unilateral transfer of vehicle fiduciary collateral based on the principle of
justice.
METHODS
The method in this
research is qualitative research with normative juridical and empirical
juridical approaches. Normative juridical research is legal research that
places law as a building system of norms. The norm system in question is
regarding principles, norms, legal rules, agreements and doctrines (teachings) (Emma Aulia, 2019). �Meanwhile,
empirical juridical research is research whose object of study is community
behavior. The behavior of the person under study is the behavior that arises as
a result of interacting with the existing system of norms. This interaction
appears as a form of community reaction to the implementation of a positive
legal provision and can also be seen from the behavior of the community as a
form of action in influencing the formation of a positive legal provision.
Empirical juridical
research in this study was carried out by prioritizing secondary data, studying
books and statutory regulations and examining the principles of positive law
originating from literary data and comparative law, as well as factors related
to the object of research as part of the research. Field. The emphasis of this
research is on library research, which means that it studies and analyzes more
secondary data as a normative juridical approach because the problems studied
revolve around the relationship between one regulation and another and its
application in society. However, it is also supported by field data which is
used as a support/complementary to secondary data to find out concretely all
problems, which is done by way of interviews.
RESULTS
AND DISCUSSION
In a fiduciary agreement, the parties have the same legal protection even
though the creditor has the potential to experience a higher risk of loss if
the debtor does not have good faith or commits a crime. The author agrees and
uses the theory of legal protection from Philipus M. Hadjon, the opinion of
Phillipus M. Hadjon that legal protection for the people is a preventive and
repressive government action (Sinaulan,
2018). Preventive legal protection
aims to prevent disputes from occurring, which directs the government's actions
to be careful in making decisions based on discretion and repressive protection
aims to resolve disputes, including their handling in courts (Putra,
2018).
Creditor Legal Protection
Financing agreements are
generally made in the form of standard agreements or also called standard
agreements, namely: an agreement formulated by one party (financial
institution) and another party (consumer) simply agrees to the terms contained
in the agreement clause proffered to him by signing the deed of agreement or rejecting it (Siskaniati
et al., 2022).
Financing agreements have
certain characteristics because they actually contain several forms of
agreements, including loan agreements, sale and purchase agreements, guarantee
agreements and insurance agreements. Even though consumer financing agreements
have never been recognized in the Civil Code, based on the principle of freedom
of contract, the parties can make and determine the form and type of agreement
themselves as long as they do not conflict with the legal terms of the
agreement as stipulated in Article 1320 of the Civil Code, namely an agreement,
capable, a certain matter, for lawful reasons, while an agreement legally made
by law will bind the parties as stipulated by law.
The consumer financing for
motorized vehicles discussed is facilitated by a consumer finance company. In
making an agreement or contract, it is required that the terms of the agreement
be valid as specified in Article 1320 of the Civil Code, namely the existence
of an agreement, competence, a certain matter, or a lawful cause, while an
agreement made legally by law will bind the parties as regulated in the law. In
Indonesia.
Technical and terms of
providing consumer financing facilities which contain matters required in the
process of providing financing, including signing of agreements, submission of
required documents, obligation to pay down payment determined by the financing
provider, and delivery and receipt of goods required financed. The consumer
financing agreement contains a debt agreement in it because the financing
provided to the consumer as the debtor becomes a debt equal to the financing
provided along with interest agreed upon by the parties.
Given the nature of the
financing, the agreement contains a principal agreement in the form of debt and
credit. In general, financing services also require adequate collateral
(collateral) for the funds issued to finance the consumption needs of the
consumer. In general, the guarantee is bound by a fiduciary guarantee
agreement. In implementing the fiduciary agreement, there are several obstacles
and obstacles that arise from the debtor, such as the occurrence of default in
the fiduciary agreement.
Legal protection for creditors
(fiduciary recipients) is provided by UUJF if the object of the fiduciary
guarantee has been registered at the Fiduciary Registration Office. One way to
protect the interests of creditors (as fiduciaries) is to provide definite
terms for creditors. Among them are the complete data that must be contained in
the Fiduciary guarantee (Article 6 UUJF), indirectly providing a strong handle
for Creditors as Fiduciary Recipients, especially which bills are guaranteed
and the amount of the collateral value, which determines how much the preferred
creditor bills.
Legal protection and the
interests of creditors in the UUJF can be seen in Article 20 UUJF:
"Fiduciaries continue to follow objects that are objects of fiduciary
guarantees in the hands of whomever the objects are, except for the transfer of
these objects, except for the transfer of inventory objects which are objects
of fiduciary guarantees".
Fiduciary givers are prohibited
from transferring, pawning, or renting to other parties objects that are
objects of Fiduciary guarantees that are not inventory objects, except with
prior written approval from the Fiduciary Recipient. This is also legal
protection for creditors. We can see this in Article 23, paragraph (1) 2) UUJF (Paparang,
2014).
Fiduciary Guarantees have the
nature of droit de suite, meaning that Fiduciary Guarantees follow objects that
are objects of Fiduciary Guarantees in the hands of whomever the object is (Winarno,
2013). The acknowledgment of the
principle of droit de suite that the right to a fiduciary guarantee follows the
object in the hands of whomever the object is in providing legal certainty for
the creditor to obtain debt repayment from the proceeds from the sale of the
Fiduciary Collateral object if the debtor defaults and transfers the Fiduciary
Collateral object (Satriya,
2020). So, legal certainty over
these rights is not only when the object of the Fiduciary Guarantee is still in
the power of the debtor but also when the object of the Fiduciary Security has
been transferred or is in the power of a third party.
There is a Droit de suite
principle regarding the transfer of inventory items, and the Fiduciary
Guarantee Law stipulates that inventory items which are objects of fiduciary
guarantees that have been transferred must be replaced by the fiduciary giver
with an equivalent object as stipulated in Article 21 paragraph (3) of the
Guarantee Law Fiduciary (Yasir,
2016).
For objects of fiduciary
guarantees that have been transferred to third parties by the debtor, they must
first be replaced with an equivalent value by the debtor because the creditor
does not bear any liability for the consequences of the actions or omissions of
the debtor, whether arising in a contractual relationship or arising from unlawful
acts in connection with the use and transfer of objects that are used as
fiduciary guarantee objects as stipulated in Article 24 of the Fiduciary
Guarantee Law. The forms of legal protection in Indonesia that can be given to creditors
are based on, are:
a.
Preventive Legal Protection With Fiduciary Guarantee
Registration System
In providing legal certainty,
especially for fiduciary givers (creditors) in Indonesia, based on Article 11,
UUJF requires objects burdened with Fiduciary Guarantees to be registered at
the Fiduciary Registration Office. Registration of fiduciary guarantees is an
embodiment of the principles of publicity and legal certainty because
registration of fiduciary guarantees is expected to provide legal certainty to
fiduciary givers and recipients. Apart from being an embodiment of the
principle of publicity and providing legal certainty, registration of fiduciary
guarantees also gives preference rights to fiduciary recipients over other
creditors. Application for registration is addressed to the Minister of Law and
Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia through the Fiduciary Registration
Office at the place of domicile of the fiduciary giver in writing in Indonesian
by the fiduciary recipient, proxy or representative by attaching a statement of
Fiduciary Guarantee Registration and filling out a form whose form and content
have been determined based on Attachment I to the Decree of the Minister of Law
and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia No. M-01.UM.01.06 of 2000. The
procedures for registration of Fiduciary Guarantees are (Kausar,
2017):
1)
Make fiduciary requests made by fiduciary
recipients, proxies or representatives at the Fiduciary Registration office.
The application is submitted in writing in the Indonesian language and attaches
a Fiduciary Registration statement. The statement contains the following:
a)
Identity of the fiduciary giver and fiduciary
recipient
b)
Place, No. fiduciary guarantee deed, name and place
c)
Notary position to make a fiduciary guarantee deed
d)
Main agreement data guaranteed by fiduciary
e)
Description of the objects of fiduciary guarantees
which are objects of fiduciary guarantees
f)
The value of the agreement and the value of objects
that are the object of fiduciary guarantees.
The application is accompanied by the following:
a)
Copy of notarial deed regarding the imposition of
fiduciary guarantees
b)
Power of attorney or letter of delegation of
authority to register fiduciary guarantees
c)
Proof of payment of the fiduciary guarantee registration
fee
2)
The registration office records the Fiduciary
Guarantee in the Fiduciary Register Book on the same date as the date of
receipt of the application for registration.
3)
Pay the fiduciary registration fee.
4)
The Fiduciary Registration Office issues and
delivers to the fiduciary recipient the Fiduciary Guarantee Certificate on the
same date as the receipt of the application for registration. The Fiduciary
Guarantee Certificate is a copy of the Fiduciary Register Book.
5)
The Fiduciary Guarantee was born on the same date as
the date the Fiduciary Guarantee was recorded in the Fiduciary Register Book.
UUJF requires that the fiduciary agreement must be made in an authentic
form that has perfect proof of what is contained therein. Article 1868 of the Civil
Code: "An authentic deed is a deed made in a form determined by law by or
before a public official who is authorized to do so at the place where the deed
was done" (Nurwulan,
2018).
Especially when it is seen that the objects of Fiduciary Guarantees are
generally unregistered movable property, then the form of an authentic deed is
considered to be able to guarantee legal certainty regarding the object of
Fiduciary Guarantees. A fiduciary guarantee must be registered. This statement
is contained in the provisions of Article 11 UUJF. In Article 11, paragraph
(1), it is emphasized that objects burdened with Fiduciary Guarantees must be
registered. Registration of Fiduciary Guarantees, apart from being regulated in
the UUJF, is also to fulfil the principle of publicity which is one of the
principles adhered to in the UUJF and is the main principle in the law of
material guarantees. Based on the principle of publicity, all rights, both
mortgage rights and fiduciary rights, must be registered. This is intended so
that third parties can find out that the object being pledged is being carried
out as collateral.
A principle is something that must exist. However, if the principle does
not exist, it does not cause the agreement to be void. The nature of the
principle of publicity is in the form of registration of a Fiduciary Guarantee
Deed which is a deed of fiduciary encumbrance that is being burdened with a
Fiduciary Guarantee. Fiduciary Guarantee registration is carried out at the
fiduciary registration office where the fiduciary giver is domiciled. For
objects encumbered with a fiduciary guarantee but the goods are outside the
territory of Indonesia, the registration is still carried out at the fiduciary
registration office in Indonesia, where the fiduciary giver is domiciled.
The Fiduciary Guarantee based on the UUJF was born on the date when the
Fiduciary Guarantee was recorded in the Fiduciary Register Book. The proof that
the creditor is the holder of the Fiduciary Guarantee is the Fiduciary
Guarantee Certificate. The Fiduciary Guarantee Certificate is issued on the
same date as the date of receipt of the Fiduciary Guarantee application. Based
on Article 15 (1): "In the Fiduciary Guarantee Certificate as referred to
in Article 14 paragraph (1), the words "For Justice Based On The One
Almighty God" are stated.
With the existence of this fiduciary certificate, if the debtor in
Indonesia defaults and diverts the fiduciary guarantee object vehicle
unilaterally, the creditor can execute or take the fiduciary guarantee vehicle,
whether it is still in the hands of the debtor or in the hands of a third
party, and the creditor cannot be punished due to this incident, this is in
accordance with Article 15 (2) which provides legal protection to creditors in
Indonesia: "The Fiduciary Guarantee Certificate as referred to in
paragraph (1) has the same executive power as a court decision that has
obtained permanent legal force" (Rufaida,
2019).
Creditors as fiduciary recipients also have the right to carry out
executorial titles on Fiduciary collateral objects using a Fiduciary Collateral
Certificate if the debtor defaults or defaults, and the creditor also has the
right to sell objects that are Fiduciary collateral objects with the approval
of the fiduciary provider or with the assistance of a district court.
b.
Protection
is Repressive by Setting Criminal Threats against Debtors
In the Fiduciary Guarantee Law, which has been
discussed above, it is stated that every fiduciary guarantee must be
registered, and the law also regulates the procedures for registering fiduciary
guarantees. Prior to the existence of this law, the existing legislation did
not regulate procedural and registration processes, so there was no such
registration for fiduciary guarantees. The absence of the obligation to
register fiduciary guarantees can cause problems for debtor financing companies
to execute fiduciary guarantees that are transferred by the debtor. It can be
proven that registration of fiduciary guarantees can guarantee legal certainty
to interested parties, namely creditors. Registration is expected to protect
creditors from debtors who transfer Fiduciary collateral objects to third
parties without the creditor's knowledge, such as when the collateral object is
confiscated by the police as Evidence.
Evidence of ownership of the collateral object in
the form of a BPKB, which is in the control of the creditor, provides legal
protection to take back the collateral object, which is in possession of the
police if the collateral object becomes Evidence. A power of attorney from the
debtor stating that he is unable to make payments and submits all settlements
to the creditor so that the creditor can regain control of the collateral
object after the investigation process is complete. If the creditor does not
obtain power of attorney from the debtor because the debtor has committed a
crime or defaulted in the fiduciary agreement, the creditor may apply for a
court order regarding the object of fiduciary security according to the
domicile of the creditor or debtor.
Creditors who have a fiduciary certificate, as we
know, if the debtor defaults and transfers the fiduciary vehicle, the creditor
is authorized to execute the fiduciary guarantee vehicle by first giving a
written warning to the debtor at least twice to carry out his obligations. The
fact is still found when creditors execute fiduciary vehicles due to defaults
and unilateral transfers, where collection officers from the creditor generally
still get resistance from the debtor. Creditors are often reported as a result
of their execution by making police reports, and investigators process
complaints from debtors with alleged Criminal Code articles. The article used
by debtors to report creditors is 362 of the Criminal Code: "Anyone who
takes something, which is wholly or partly owned by another person, with the
intention of unlawfully possessing it, is threatened with theft, with a maximum
imprisonment of five years or a maximum fine of a lot of nine hundred
rupiahs."
In addition to the article above, the article that
is often used in providing legal protection to creditors is the use of Article
365 Paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code, namely: "Threatened by a maximum
imprisonment of nine years theft which is preceded, accompanied or followed by
violence or threats of violence, against a person with the intent to prepare
the atsu to facilitate theft, or in the event of being caught red-handed, to
allow the escape of oneself or another participant, or to retain possession of
stolen items.�
The police report made by the debtor should not be
valid in Indonesia if the creditor has a fiduciary guarantee certificate and
can be categorized as legally disabled. The encumbrance of objects or vehicles
with a Fiduciary Guarantee is made with a notarial deed in Indonesian and is
Fiduciary Guarantee deed. Registration of fiduciary guarantees in Indonesia is
carried out at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham). With the
registration of a fiduciary guarantee object in the form of a vehicle, it is
hoped that it can protect creditors. In Article 36 UUJF, if the debtor
transfers the vehicle as a fiduciary guarantee object, it can be subject to
criminal sanctions in prison for a maximum of 2 (two) years and a maximum fine
of Rp. 50,000,000. - (fifty million rupiahs).
The creditor can report the debtor to the police,
and with the police report, the object of the fiduciary vehicle will be
confiscated by Polri investigators to be used as Evidence. The confiscated
fiduciary vehicle can be loaned to the authorized party to reduce damage or
loss from the creditor, with certain conditions according to existing legal
regulations, and if investigators need the confiscated Evidence, the party
applying for the loan must present it at trial. The results of an interview
conducted with the Head of the North Jakarta Police, represented by Mr Dwi
Prasetyo Wibowo as Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the North Jakarta
Metropolitan Resort, explained: "For vehicles that are confiscated, the
status is still in the process of credit, it can be borrowed or used by the
debtor or the debtor as long as they are still paying the credit instalments.�
The same opinion was obtained from the results of an
interview with the East Jakarta Police Chief, represented by Mr Ashanuil
Muqaffi as Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit for the East Jakarta Police,
explaining: "Regarding the vehicle that was confiscated, the status is
still in the credit process, it can be borrowed or used by the debtor or the
debtor as long as he is still paying the credit instalments.�
This is in accordance with the explanation of the
Leasing party represented by Mr Chandra D. Silitonga as the Director of PT
Artha Asia Finance, who explained: "Fiduciary recipients as holders of
ownership rights to fiduciary collateral objects can submit applications for
borrowing".
This is reinforced by the results of an interview
with Mr Eko Budisiswanto as Head of the Legal and Business Counsel Dept. of PT.
Federal International Finance, which explains that:
"Creditors as fiduciary recipients are the
holders of vehicle ownership rights, which are the object of the fiduciary
guarantee. Therefore, they can apply for a loan to the Investigator."
From the results of these interviews, it can be
concluded to fulfil a sense of justice in Indonesia, especially creditors, the
police who are responsible for handling cases invite the parties who are
entitled to apply for a loan to use a fiduciary vehicle, the aim is to reduce
the risk of damage due to the confiscation of the fiduciary vehicle. This, of
course, can be done by fulfilling all the procedures set out. This is in
accordance with Perkap No. 8 of 2014 concerning Amendments to Perkap No. 10 of
2010 concerning Procedures for Managing Evidence in the Environment of the
Indonesian National Police Article 23, namely: "(1) Evidence confiscated
and stored in a special place can only be loaned to the owner or party entitled
to it".
The process that must be carried out when the
loan-to-use process is carried out, according to an interview with the Head of
the North Jakarta Police, represented by Mr Dwi Prasetyo Wibowo as Head of the
North Jakarta Metropolitan Resort Criminal Investigation Unit, explained:
"For confiscated vehicles, it can be borrowed.
The process is by submitting a loan application by attaching a photocopy of the
identity document of the vehicle being borrowed, and against this submission,
the POLRI leadership has the right to refuse the application submitted for
certain reasons."
The same opinion was obtained from the results of an
interview with the East Jakarta Police Chief, represented by Mr Joko Dwi
Harsono as Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the West Jakarta Police,
who explained: "For confiscated vehicles, you can borrow them. The process
is by submitting a loan application by attaching a photocopy of the identity
document of the vehicle being borrowed, and against this submission, the POLRI
leadership has the right to refuse the application submitted for certain
reasons."
Confiscation of fiduciary vehicles also does not
eliminate fiduciary guarantees; based on Article 25 UUJF, the elimination of
fiduciary guarantees is due to the following:
1)
Elimination
of debt guaranteed by fiduciary;
2)
Relinquishment
of rights to fiduciary guarantees by fiduciary recipients; or
3)
The
destruction of objects that are the object of fiduciary guarantees.
Based on this article, confiscation will not cancel
the agreement burdened by a fiduciary guarantee, so the debtor is still obliged
to pay off his debts. In Article 1131 of the Civil Code (hereinafter referred
to as the Civil Code), where the article reflects a general guarantee that
obliges the debtor to provide a replacement guarantee which reads, "All
movable and immovable objects belonging to the debtor, both existing and
future, becomes collateral for the debtor's individual agreements. Obligations
must be carried out by the debtor if the fiduciary collateral object is
confiscated by the Investigator. Namely, the debtor must pay his debts. If the
debtor experiences congestion in paying off his credit, the debtor must provide
a replacement guarantee that has a higher value or is equivalent to the
fiduciary collateral object that has been confiscated.
The fiduciary giver (the debtor) should be
responsible, carry out his obligations and keep the collateral object under his
control. However, it is possible that the object of the Fiduciary Guarantee
changes hands or transfers its control to a third party because it is
transferred by the debtor, usually due to economic factors. The existence of
Law No. 42 of 1999 concerning guarantees in Indonesia which is lex specialis derogat
legi general, is one of the legal principles which implies that specific legal
rules will override general legal rules. It will provide legal protection to
the parties, especially creditors.
Compensation Civil
Lawsuit
The confiscation of fiduciary vehicles in Indonesia
by POLRI investigators because of a unilateral transfer from the debtor caused
the creditor to suffer losses, and the vehicle became unmaintained and damaged.
The legal relationship that occurs between the two parties occurs because of an
agreement; because there is a legal relationship between the two, the
creditor's rights are guaranteed by the law, which is emphasized by Article
1338 paragraph (1) of the Civil Code (hereinafter referred to as the Civil
Code) which states that all agreements made legally apply as laws to those who
make them. Based on that, if one of the parties does not comply with the
demands of the other party voluntarily, the creditor can sue them in court.
Creditors who feel aggrieved can file a lawsuit for
default. Compensation that can be claimed in default in a fiduciary agreement,
Article 1243 of the Civil Code has provided its provisions which are the
principal regulations regarding compensation if an agreement is not fulfilled.
The compensation is in the form of costs, losses, and interest (Kosten, Schaden
et interested). In the event that the debtor breaks his promise, the demands
that can be submitted by the creditor are (Slamet, 2013):
a.
engagement
fulfilment;
b.
fulfilment
of the agreement with compensation;
c.
compensation;
d.
reciprocal agreement cancellation;
e.
cancellation with compensation.
The default can be interpreted
as the implementation of obligations that are not right at the specified time
or in carrying out the achievement of the agreement has been negligent so that
it is late from the specified time schedule or in carrying out achievements
that are not appropriate/proper, where the negligence can be of four types:
a.
does
not do what he is willing to do;
b.
carry
out what was agreed, but not as agreed;
c.
carry
out what he promised but too late; or
d.
Do
something that, according to the agreement, is not allowed to do. If the
default in the fiduciary agreement creates an obligation for compensation and
the creditor can sue for the above matters, then making demands, the creditor
must understand when the debtor can be said to have broken a promise, whether the
broken promise happened by itself.
The
debtor is said to have defaulted on the fiduciary agreement if it fulfils:
a.
Material
requirements, namely the intentional existence of which the debtor wants and
knows and is aware of causing losses to creditors and the existence of
negligence that is obligatory to perform, should reasonably suspect that the
actions or attitudes taken by him will cause losses. There is a default in a
fiduciary agreement made by the debtor, which means that the debtor is aware
and knows it has not been implemented for various reasons, for example, the
economy is down, late paying, and the instalment should be given to the
creditor but given to another party who is not responsible, causing the debtor
to lose due to non-fulfilment of the agreement.
b.
Formal
requirements, namely the existence of a warning given by the creditor if the
material conditions carried out by the debtor are met. This means that if it is
not fulfilled, the creditor gives a subpoena or gives a legal warning 2 (two) times.
If the debtor still does not carry out his achievements, then an action is
taken to execute the withdrawal of the fiduciary guarantee, which becomes the
object whenever and wherever because the power of withdrawing the fiduciary
execution guarantee is equivalent to a decision court that has permanent legal
force.
Creditors in Indonesia who feel disadvantaged can
take legal remedies granted by law to a person or legal entity for certain
matters to fight against the judge's decision as a place for parties who are
dissatisfied with the judge's decision which is deemed not in accordance with
what is desired, not fulfilling a sense of justice, because a judge is also a
human being who can make mistakes/oversights so that he decides wrongly or
takes the side of one of the parties, in legal remedies for the aggrieved
parties can be divided into ordinary legal remedies and extraordinary legal
remedies:
a.
Ordinary
legal remedies
It is a legal remedy that is used for decisions that
do not have permanent legal force. Basically, suspend execution. With the
exception, namely, if the decision has been handed down with the provision that
it can be implemented first or uitboverbaar Bij voorraad in Article 180
paragraph (1) HIR so, even though legal efforts are made, the execution will
continue. These ordinary remedies include:
1)
Resistance/verzet
Legal action against a decision outside the presence
of the defendant (verstek decision). The legal basis for verzet can be seen in
Article 129 HIR. Verzet can be carried out within a period of 14 days
(including holidays) after the Verstek decision has been notified or submitted
to the defendant because the defendant was not present. Verzet requirements, as
stated in (Article 129 paragraph (1) HIR), are:
a)
issuance
of the verse decision
b)
the
period for filing resistance shall not exceed 14 days, and if there is an
execution, it shall not exceed eight days; and
c)
Verzet
is entered and submitted to the Chairperson of the District Court in the
jurisdiction where the plaintiff filed his lawsuit.
2)
Appeal
It is a legal remedy that is taken if one party is
dissatisfied with the decision of the District Court (Sitorus, 2018). The legal basis is Law no. 4 of 2004 concerning
Amendments to the Basic Power Law and Law no. 20 of 1947 concerning Repeat
Trials. An appeal must be submitted to the clerk of the District Court who made
the decision (Article 7 Law No. 20 of 1947). The order of appeal according to
Article 21 of Law no. 4 of 2004 jo. Article 9 UU No. 20 of 1947 revoked the
provisions of Article 188-194 HIR, namely:
a)
there
is a statement of wanting to appeal
b)
the
clerk makes a deed of appeal
c)
recorded
in the master register of cases
d)
The
statement of appeal must have been received by the appellant no later than 14
days after the statement of appeal was made.
e)
The
comparator can make a memorandum of appeal, and the appellant can submit a
counter memorandum of appeal.
3)
Cassation
According to Articles 29 and 30 of Law no. 14 of
1985, jo. Law No. 5 of 2004 cassation is the annulment of decisions on court
decisions from all judicial environments at the final court level (Tamusala, 2018). The decision submitted in the cassation decision
is an appeal decision. The reasons used in the request for cassation are
specified in Article 30 of Law No. 14 of 1985 jo. Law No. 5 of 2004 are:
a)
not
authorized (both absolute and relative authority) to exceed the limits of
authority;
b)
misapplying/violating
applicable law;
c)
failure
to comply with the requirements required by laws and regulations that threaten
negligence with the cancellation of the decision in question.
4)
Extraordinary
legal action
Made against
decisions that have permanent legal force, and in principle, this legal remedy
does not suspend execution. Includes:
1.
Judicial
review
If there are matters or circumstances determined by
law, a court decision that has legal force can still be requested for review
from the Supreme Court in civil and criminal cases by interested parties. The
reasons for the review according to Article 67 of the Law, namely:
a)
There
is a novum or new Evidence which is known after the case has been decided,
which is based on Evidence later declared false by the criminal judge;
b)
if,
after the case has been decided, decisive Evidence is found which could not be
found at the time the case was examined;
c)
if
a thing has been granted, that is not demanded/more than what is required;
d)
if a part of the claim has not been decided without considering the
reasons;
e)
if, in one decision, there is a judge's oversight/a real mistake.
The deadline for filing is 180 days after the decision has permanent
legal force. (Article 69), the Supreme Court decides on a request for review at
the first and final levels (Article 70 Law No. 14 of 1985 concerning the
Supreme Court).
2.
Extraordinary Remedies: Denderverzet
Occurs if a court decision
harms the interests of a third party, then the third party can file a challenge
against the decision. The legal basis is 378-384 Rv and Article 195(6) HIR. It
is said to be an extraordinary legal remedy because, basically, a decision only
binds the litigants (the plaintiff and the defendant) and does not bind a third
party (but in this case, the result of the decision will bind another
person/third party. Therefore, it is said to be extraordinary). Denderverzet
was submitted to the District Court, which decided the case at the first level.
The existence of other legal remedies in Indonesia
in the form of a lawsuit for compensation provides justice for the aggrieved
party, especially the creditor. According to John Rawls in creating justice,
the main principles used are (Safa'at,
2011):
1)
The same freedom as much as possible, if it continues to benefit all
parties;
2)
The
principle of inequality is used to the advantage of the weakest.
John Rawls argues that what causes
injustice is the social situation, so it needs to be re-examined to determine
which principles of justice can be used to form a good social situation (Purba et al., 2021) . In Indonesia, justice is described in Pancasila as the basis of
the state, namely social justice for all Indonesian people. The five precepts
contain values that are the goal of living together. This justice is based on
and imbued with the essence of human justice, namely justice in the
relationship between humans and themselves, humans and other humans, humans and
society, nation, and state, as well as the relationship between humans and God.
These
values of justice must be a basis that must be realized in living together with
the state to realize the goals of the state, namely realizing the welfare of
all its citizens and all its territory, educating all its citizens.
Likewise,
the values of justice serve as the basis for the association between countries
among nations in the world and the principles of wanting to create order in
living together an association between nations in the world based on a
principle of independence for every nation, eternal peace, and justice in
living together (justice social).
CONCLUSION
The form of legal protection in Indonesia is
specifically given to creditors because the debtor defaults and diverts the
fiduciary guarantee vehicle unilaterally to provide legal certainty and obtain
justice. The protection is in the form of preventive legal protection with the
Fiduciary Guarantee Registration System and repressive protection by setting
criminal threats against debtors. The encumbrance of objects or vehicles with a
Fiduciary Guarantee is made with a notarial deed in Indonesian and is Fiduciary
Guarantee deed. Registration of fiduciary guarantees in Indonesia is carried
out at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights.
Registration of fiduciary guarantees that
have been carried out by the creditor will provide legal protection with the existence
of the fiduciary certificate if the debtor in Indonesia defaults and diverts
the fiduciary guarantee object vehicle unilaterally, the creditor can execute
or take the fiduciary guarantee vehicle whether it is still in the hands of the
debtor or in the hands of third parties and creditors cannot be criminalized as
a result of this incident. Debtors who unilaterally transfer fiduciary vehicles
can be punished for this, as stated in article 36 UUJF. The fiduciary vehicle
can be confiscated by POLRI investigators to be used as Evidence. Creditors who
feel aggrieved as a result of the actions of unscrupulous debtors can also take
other legal remedies by filing a lawsuit for compensation.
