Traditional law enforcement often focuses on punishing perpetrators without regard to restoring victims and damaged social relationships. Restorative Justice (RJ) has emerged as an alternative that emphasizes restoring victim harm, offender responsibility, and repairing social relationships. Sukoharjo Regency implemented RJ to resolve criminal cases more humanistically and efficiently. This study aims to analyze the implementation of RJ in handling criminal cases at Sukoharjo Police, evaluate its compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and assess public views on this approach. This research used a qualitative method type empirical juridical. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with police officers, victims, perpetrators, and community leaders, as well as analysis of official documents such as police reports and related regulations. The results showed that the implementation of RJ at Sukoharjo Regency was largely in accordance with the established SOPs. The mediation process is conducted transparently and involves all relevant parties. The community generally has a positive view of RJ, considering it a fairer and more efficient way to resolve criminal cases. However, there are several obstacles, such as limited trained human resources and a lack of public understanding of the RJ concept. RJ implementation at Sukoharjo District Police has successfully achieved the goals of recovery and restorative justice, although there is still room for improvement. Increased education and socialization to the community is needed, as well as additional training for police personnel to become more effective mediators. Sukoharjo Police are advised to increase RJ socialization programs, provide ongoing training for officers, and strengthen coordination with community leaders to support more optimal RJ implementation. Penegakan hukum tradisional seringkali berfokus pada penghukuman pelaku tanpa memperhatikan pemulihan korban dan hubungan sosial yang rusak. Restorative Justice (RJ) muncul sebagai alternatif yang menekankan pada pemulihan kerugian korban, tanggung jawab pelaku, dan perbaikan hubungan sosial. Di Kabupaten Sukoharjo sudah banyak pengimplementasian Restorative Justice untuk menyelesaikan perkara pidana secara lebih humanis dan efisien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis implementasi RJ dalam penanganan perkara pidana di Sukoharjo, mengevaluasi kepatuhannya terhadap Standar Operasional Prosedur (SOP), serta menilai pandangan masyarakat terhadap pendekatan ini. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam dengan aparat kepolisian, korban, pelaku, dan tokoh masyarakat, serta analisis dokumen resmi seperti laporan kepolisian dan regulasi terkait. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi RJ di Sukoharjo sebagian besar sudah sesuai dengan SOP yang ditetapkan. Proses mediasi dilakukan dengan transparan dan melibatkan semua pihak terkait. Masyarakat secara umum memiliki pandangan positif terhadap RJ, menganggapnya sebagai cara yang lebih adil dan efisien dalam menyelesaikan perkara pidana. Namun, terdapat beberapa kendala, seperti keterbatasan sumber daya manusia terlatih dan kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat tentang konsep RJ. Implementasi RJ di Sukoharjo berhasil mencapai tujuan pemulihan dan keadilan restoratif, meskipun masih ada ruang untuk perbaikan. Diperlukan peningkatan edukasi dan sosialisasi kepada masyarakat, serta pelatihan tambahan bagi personel kepolisian untuk menjadi mediator yang lebih efektif. Sukoharjo disarankan untuk meningkatkan program sosialisasi RJ, menyediakan pelatihan berkelanjutan bagi petugas, dan memperkuat koordinasi dengan tokoh masyarakat untuk mendukung pelaksanaan RJ yang lebih optimal.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the reconstruction of Religious Court decision execution on the fulfilment of children’s rights post-divorce in Indonesia. Theoretical Framework: This research is based on the postulate that court decisions ideally aimed to guarantee justice and legal certainty for the parties, but in reality, not all judge’s decisions can be implemented as well. This can be seen in the implementation of religious court decisions in Indonesia regarding children's maintenance rights post-divorce. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research uses a juridical-normative method. The sources and techniques of data collection were obtained from documentation studies, literature, and interviews with informants. The data analysis technique uses a deductive approach to formulate a conclusion. Findings: The results of this research show that on the one hand, the regulation of the father's obligations towards child support post-divorce in the judge's decision at the Religious Courts refers more to the positive laws that implemented in Indonesia. On the other hand, positive law in Indonesia has not yet effective in regulating the execution of judges' decisions regarding the children's rights post-divorce because it is only voluntary and lacks coercive power. Research, Practical & Social Implications: As the implication of the research, family law in Indonesia needs to be reconstructed through conducting special regulations regarding the execution mechanism regarding the fulfillment of children's rights post-divorce to be more regulatory, binding, and coercive. Originality/Value: The value of the research originality became an explanatory method for the conceptual development of the reconstruction of Religious Court decision execution on the fulfilment of children’s rights post-divorce in Indonesia.
