Abstract

This research used a qualitative approach in literature review, using inclusion criteria and flowcharts to compile data into a synthesis based on scientific sources related to linguistic forensics that were obtained from various sources both journals and books using inclusion criteria. The researchers found 2436 journals that fit these keywords. A total of 439 journals found according to the search keywords were then screened, 163 journals were excluded because full text articles were not available. Eligibility assessment of 279 full text journals was carried out, journals that were duplicated and did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded as many as 273, so that 6 full text journals were reviewed. Based on the results of the analysis and discussion above from this study, it can be concluded that with the development of forensic linguistics as a scientific discipline, linguistic studies are certainly needed both for oral variety data and written variety data related to language in legal processes, language in legal products and language in legal evidence.
