The state guarantees the survival, growth and development of children as well as protection from violence and discrimination, as stated in Article 28 B Paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. So, to guarantee legal certainty for children, the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System was formulated as an answer and solution to fulfill the sense of justice in society, even to protect the interests of children. However, there are limited provisions in the Criminal Threats given to Children who are in conflict with the law, so that in some cases handling which is considered a serious crime still does not answer the sense of justice of society, so it is necessaryIntegration of the Judicial Waiver Concept into the Juvenile Criminal Justice System as an Effort to Address Serious Juvenile Offenders. Using normative legal research methods, the approach method uses a legislative, conceptual and comparative approach, the research specifications are descriptive analysis and the research is analyzed qualitatively with Justice Theory, Legal System Theory, and Progressive Legal Theory. The current Juvenile Criminal Justice System has not fulfilled the sense of justice in society, in addition to the interaction of the Legal Structure, Legal Substance and Legal Culture is not balanced so that it can disrupt law enforcement, so that progressive critical thinking is needed to answer the sense of justice that exists in society with the Transition of Juvenile Criminal Justice to Adult Justice. However, there is a weakness when implemented in the Juvenile Criminal Justice System in Indonesia because there is a normative vacuum, so there is no legal umbrella for its implementation. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate the integration of the concept of judicial waiver qualifications of serious juvenile offenders in the juvenile criminal justice system as a legal umbrella for the concept. The qualifications of Serious Juvenile Offenders can be stated in the Subjective category originating from the Child and Objective which is the Child's actions. Judicial Waiver can be divided into two Procedural Systems, namely the Juvenile Justice Transfer System to General Court based on the Public Prosecutor's Application (Direct File Waiver) and the Judicial Justice Transfer System to General Court based on the Judge's Determination (Judicial Waiver).
