Intisari
Negara penganut sistem hukum Common Law dikenal sebagai yurisdiksi dimana hakim sebagai pihak
pembuat hukum (judge made law). Konsep tersebut sudah diadopsi negara bersistem hukum Eropa
Kontinental seperti Indonesia. Hakim pengadilan maupun hakim konstitusi tidak jarang membuat penemuan hukum untuk mengisi ketiadaan hukum atau memperbarui hukum agar sesuai dengan kebutuhan zaman. Praktik penemuan dan pembentukan hukum oleh hakim di pengadilan ini ternyata memiliki akar sejarah serta tradisi yang cukup kuat sejak zaman romawi dan termasuk juga di Indonesia. Hal tersebut menjadi salah satu faktor penting terjadinya konvergensi sistem peradilan Common Law yang menemukan dan membentuk hukum di Indonesia. |
