Legal Protection of Notary Employees as Instrumental Witnesses in Case Examinations

Sandy Sandy

Abstract


This study aims to analyze the legal protection of Notary employees as instrumental witnesses in the examination of cases related to Notarial deeds. This study uses a normative legal research method with a statutory, conceptual, and case approach. Legal materials were obtained through literature studies and analyzed qualitatively using prescriptive methods. The results of the study indicate that Notary employees as instrumental witnesses are in a position to witness the implementation of the formalities of the deed inauguration, specifically the presence, reading, and signing of the deed. Employees are not responsible for the substance of the deed, which is the will of the parties and is within the authority of the Notary. In the examination of the case, employees can provide information based on facts known and witnessed directly. Legal protection is needed in preventive and repressive forms. Preventive protection is carried out through clarity regarding the position, rights, obligations, limits of information, and limits of responsibility. Repressive protection is needed if during the examination there is pressure, intimidation, or violation of the witness's rights. Therefore, certainty is needed regarding the limits of the position and legal protection for Notary employees as instrumental witnesses.
