"Mahkamah Konstitusi adalah salah satu pelaku kekuasaan kehakiman yang bersifat mandiri dengan posisi yang sejajar dengan Mahkamah Agung. Mahkamah Konstitusi berfungsi melakukan kekuasaan yang merdeka untuk menyelengarakan peradilan guna menegakkan hukum dan keadilan. Secara teoritis Mahkamah Konstitusi berfungsi sebagai pengawdl konstitusi, sebagai penafsir konstitusi, pelindung hak konstitusional warga negara, sebagai pelindung hak asasi manusia dan sebagai pengimbang demokrasi.Fungsi-fungsi tersebut diterapkan dalam melaksanakan empat wewenangnya dan satu kewajiban Mahkamah Konstitusi, yaitu menguji undang-undang terhadap UUD RI 1945; memutus sengketa kewenangan antar lembaga negara yang kewenangannya diberikan oleh UUD RI 1945; memutus pembubaran partai politik; memutus perselisihan tentang hasil pemilu; dan memberi putusan atas pendapat Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat bahwa Presiden dan atau Wakil Presiden diduga telah melakukan pelanggaran hukum berupa penghianatan terhadap negara, korupsi, penyuapan, tindak pidana beret lainnya, atau perbuatan tercela, dan/atau tidak lagi memenuhi syarat sebagai Presiden dan/atau Wakil Presiden.Mahkamah Konstitusi berusaha untuk menjadi penyeimbang dalam hubungan antar lembaga negara, sehingga Mahkamah Konstitusi berada di tengah-tengah mekanisme hubungan antar lembaga negara. Posisi tersebut terkait dengan bertambahnya lembaga-lembaga baru pasca reformasi dan juga peran Mahkamah Konstitusi sebagai pemegang wewenang menyangkut sengketa kewenangan lembaga negara.

The Constitutional Court is one of Indonesia independent judicial power with the same level position as the Supreme Court. The Constitutional Court is an independent authority in enforcing justice in order to uphold the law. Theoretically, the Constitutional Court functions as the guardian of the constitution, as the sole interpreter of the constitution, as the protector of human rights, as the protector of the citizens' constitutional rights, and as The Agent of Control of Democracy.These functions are applied in implementing its four authorities and one obligation of the Constitutional Court, namely to verify the legislation against the 1945 Constitution of Republic of Indonesia; to settle the disperse of political parties; to settle the dispute on the outcome of general election; and to provide a decision on the judgment of House of Representatives that the President and/or Vice President is allegedly committed a breach of law in the form of betrayal against the nation, corruption, bribery, other extreme criminal acts, or unlawful acts, and/or does not any longer meet the requirement as the President and/or Vice President.Constitutional Court seeks to serve as a balancer of inter-institutions relationship. The position is related to the existence of new post-reform national institutions and also to the role of Constitutional Court as the authority in matter relating to the authority related dispute between the national institutions."

"Mahkamah Konstitusi merupakan salah satu lembaga tinggi negara  yang bertugas untuk menjaga konstitusi. Hakim Mahkamah Konstitusi  yang merupakan pejabat negara dan dapat memutus perkara yang berkaitan dengan konstitusionalisme  dan memiliki dampak secara nasional menempatkan posisi Hakim Mahkamah Konstitusi pada posisi yang krusial. Pemberhentian yang dilakukan kepada Hakim Mahkamah Konstitusi memiliki pengaturan yang rinci, terutama prosedur pemberhentian tidak dengan hormat. Dalam prosedur pemberhentian tidak dengan hormat terdapat suatu mekanisme yaitu  pemberhentian sementara. Pemberhentian sementara memberikan kesempatan bagi hakim untuk membela diri dan memberikan kesempatan pada Mahkamah Konstitusi untuk tetap menjaga marwah integritas yang dimiliki dengan menonaktifkan hakim yang bermasalah terlebih dahulu. Posisi yang abu-abu terhadap Hakim Mahkamah Konstitusi berimbas pada kurangnya hakim yang mengadili dan akhirnya berimbas pada proses persidangan.  Oleh karena itu, penulis akan menjelaskan tentang mekanisme pemberhentian sementara Hakim Mahkamah Konstitusi dan  implikasinya pada persidangan di Mahkamah Konstitusi. Penggunaan  metode yuridis normatif untuk menjawab dampak dari pemberhentian sementara pada persidangan  guna mengetahui  penyesuaian pelaksanaan dalam praktiknya.

Judges of the Constitutional Court who are state officials and can decide cases related to constitutionalism and have a national impact place the position of Constitutional Court Judges in a crucial position. The dismissal of Constitutional Court Judges has detailed arrangements, especially the procedure for dishonourable dismissal. In the procedure for dishonourable dismissal there is a mechanism, namely temporary dismissal. Temporary dismissal provides an opportunity for judges to defend themselves and provides an opportunity for the Constitutional Court to maintain the dignity of its integrity by deactivating problematic judges first. The grey position of the Constitutional Court judges has an impact on the lack of judges who hear cases and ultimately affects the trial process.  Therefore, the author will explain the mechanism for the temporary dismissal of Constitutional Court Judges and its implications for trials at the Constitutional Court. The use of normative juridical methods to answer the impact of temporary dismissal on the trial in order to find out the implementation adjustments in practice."

"INTRODUCTION America is a country of laws rather than of men. Laws that are agreed on by representatives of the people, implemented by the government and reviewed for their legal constitutionality by judges of the Supreme Court rule America. These laws must conform to certain broad principles of moral justice. They then govern the actions of the population of America. Since laws govern the actions of the people, they must be stable. Judges of the court who apply laws to existing cases are expected to make consistent decisions. They should do so and must also bear in their minds that the decisions they made might be referred to as precedents when other judges decide cases of similar type. "Stability of laws and consistency of decisions are basic values of our judicial system", said Harold O. Berman in his article, "Philosophical Aspects of American Law", broadcast by the Voice of America (Berman, 1973:323). In 1936, the Supreme Court, by 5 to 4 vote-in the case of Morehead v. New York ex rel. Tipaldo. 298 U.S. 587 (1936) invalidated a statute of the state of New York prescribing minimum wages for women and children. But only one year later, the Supreme Court upheld a Washington State minimum wage law. The Supreme Court not only chanced its decision of 1936 but also repudiated the then prevailing interpretation of the due process clause of the United States Constitution. Before 1973 the due process clauses were traditionally used to curb legislation of the social welfare type. Since then, "no federal, and relatively few state, laws of this type have been declared unconstitutional on the due process ground" (Carr, 1961: 95). The above Court's inconsistent decision has greatly attracted my attention to write this thesis. It seems to me that some of the American Supreme Court's decisions in the course of the first two terms of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt had to be accordingly adjusted in response to deep social and political demands of the changing times and conditions. Dexter Perkins quoted an assertion of President Roosevelt's supporters saying, "if the President lost the battle, he won the war, that if his legislation failed, he had the satisfaction of seeing the Court bend to the spirit of the times". Perkins further wrote: "History itself demonstrates that our highest tribunal will suffer grievously in prestige and power if it fails to conform to the spirit of the times" (Perkins, 1957:61-63). This thesis will examine some factors affecting reversals of the Supreme Court's decisions during the first two terms of President Roosevelt. Perhaps these decisions, which became controversial at the times, had to be made in response to social and political pressures. It might also be possible that these decisions had been influenced by the Supreme Court's justices' personal values and orientations, the state of the law applicable to each of the selected cases, the interaction among its members and other external factors, which will be discussed in detail in Chapter III and Chapter IV.

"Skripsi ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan dan menganalisis tentang peran Mahkamah Konstitusi sebagai Positive Legislator dan implikasinya terhadap proses legislasi di Indonesia. Penulis mempergunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif dengan studi kepustakaan yang menggabungkan teori pemisahan kekuasaan, fiilosofi pembentukan peradilan konstitusi, konsep negara hukum dengan proses legislasi di Indonesia. Putusan No. 10/PUU-VI/2008 menunjukkan Mahkamah Konstitusi di Indonesia telah berperan sebagai positive legislator (pemuat norma) yang menimbulkan banyak perdebatan secara akademis. Hal ini sejalan dengan perkembangan di beberapa negara yang memungkinkan adanya peran peradilan konstitusinya sebagai positive legislator dalam menjamin hak-hak warga negara. Selain itu, dapat dilihat bagaimana implikasi dari tindakan Mahkamah Konstitusi yang mencantumkan syarat domisili calon anggota DPD terhadap proses legislasi yang dipegang oleh DPR dan Presiden (termasuk DPD).

The purpose of this thesis is to explain and analyse the role of Constitutional Court as Positive Legislator and its implications toward the legislation process in Indonesia. The writer uses the juridical-normative research method alongside bibliographic study which mixes separation of power theory, the forming of constitutional tribunal philosophy, the state of law concept with the legislation process in Indonesia. From the Judgment No.10/PUU-VI/2008, it can be concluded that the Indonesian Constitutional Court has its role as a positive legislator. This is consistent with the developments among some States which permit the existence of a role of a positive legislator from a constitutional tribunal in guaranteeing the rights of citizens. Besides, this thesis will bring into focus the implications from the acts of Constitutional Court which has the domicile requirements written down for the candidates of DPD to the legislation process which is held by DPR and the President (including the DPD)."
