Abuse Of Authority In Complete Systematic Land Registration (CSLP) In Cikupa Village, Cikupa District, Tangerang Regency, Banten

Abstract

Abuse of authority is an act against the law, an act that exceeds the authority possessed for self-interest or benefit. This abuse of authority occurred in the Complete Systematic Land Registration (PTSL) program in Cikupa Village. The Complete Systematic Land Registration Program itself is a government program so that people in villages or sub-districts register their land to obtain a certificate of ownership of the land ownership, to achieve legal certainty and protection of land rights according to the UUPA. In its implementation, there is an abuse of authority in the form of illegal levies. This article uses normative legal research methods, qualitative data analysis is carried out as an analytical knife,  Gustav Radbruch's legal theory about the purpose of the law, legal behavior according to Lawrence M Friedman and Donald Black, and the theory of authority from Ateng Syafrudin. The modus operandi of abuse of authority through illegal levies is by inflating the cost of administering the land registration program beyond the amount determined by legislation, the proceeds from illegal levies by the suspects are used for campaign funds for the Village Head election and personal gain. To handle this action, it is necessary to have administrative and criminal sanctions for the perpetrators, public control by community members and assistance by the academic community are also very necessary to prevent acts of abuse of authority in this program.
