<p>This study aimed to see the effectiveness of using force majeure along with the challenges the attorney might encounter against taxation crime. It was a normative study with statute and case approaches. The study was conducted in High Prosecutor General office in Makassar and Directorate General of Tax South Sulawesi. The result showed that the force majeure by attorney against taxation crime might be applied in the form of detention to complete particular documents and conduct an additional investigation before filing the case to the court. The challenges in implementing the force majeure by attorney against taxation crime might come from legal and non-legal factors. The former involved confusing phrase of ‘investigation termination’ by attorney and the light different view on state financial losses between under Corruption Law and under General Act of Taxation, and the later involved the professionalism of attorney and information transparency. </p>

SUMMARY The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the introduction of a range of regulatory measures, which has had a detrimental impact on the rights of South Africans, in general, and specifically the ability of commercial lessees to trade. A large number of commercial lessees were forced to close their businesses for lengthy periods of time, which effectively meant that they were deprived of the use and enjoyment of their leased premises. It is unclear whether such lessees, who have been either partly or absolutely deprived of the use of their premises, should continue to make rental payments. The common law is explored to cast light on this issue, taking account of the use of force majeure clauses and the operation of the lockdown measures as a form of vis maior. The common law position regarding vis maior and its impact on rent obligations is further considered with reference to regulatory measures that were specifically introduced to assist parties that were negatively affected due to the lockdown measures in the commercial rental sector.

This article analyzes the legal nature of the force majeure in the system of legal relations. The will of the parties to a force majeure legal relationship, as a sudden or unavoidable event or situation involving their will, affects the rights and obligations between them and has certain legal consequences, the whole system of legal relations has also been examined as the basis for exemption from liability or exclusion of liability. Approaches have also been explored in distinguishing a situation that led to harm as a risk (risk) or force majeure situation in determining liability for breach of obligation. The conditions for the use of force majeure in the continental and general legal systems are analyzed, and scientific conclusions are drawn on its legal nature and its role in the national legal system.

The article deals with the method of comprehensive assessment of the investment attractiveness of a startup project and the criteria for its effectiveness. Investment attractiveness of a startup is such an economic category, which is a complex indicator of objective and subjective characteristics of a startup, characterized by the efficiency of using the property of the enterprise, its solvency, financial stability, the ability to self-development on the basis of increasing the return on capital, quality and competitiveness of products, and reflecting the feasibility of investing funds. To select the optimal criteria for the investment attractiveness of a startup and develop the necessary procedures for their use, the first part of the article considers the problems in the activities of enterprises that can affect their investment attractiveness. In relation to the selected components, the criteria for assessing their condition and the degree of influence on investment attractiveness are determined. When selecting a startup project, the authors proposed a number of important criteria, of which at least 6 were singled out. Their availability and sufficiency are necessary conditions for its intended implementation. Further, the authors propose a single method of comprehensive assessment of the level of investment attractiveness of a startup. The presence and possession of such a technique will allow the head to make up for the lack of experience in the implementation of startup projects and the development of new innovative ideas, as many, falling into force majeure experience confusion and panic, which often leads to significant financial losses. To do this, a number of elements that have the greatest impact on investment characteristics are pre-allocated in the structure of the proposed business startup. Thus, this study helps potential investors of financial resources in new start-up projects to carry out forecasting in advance and avoid the main problems that arise in front of them when applying the developed methodology of their assessment.

Corruption has occurred systematically and widely, causing state financial losses, as well as violating the social and economic rights of the community at large. The most common punishment imposed on perpetrators of corruption is imprisonment. Law Number 12 of 1999 concerning Corrections states that one of the rights of prisoners is to obtain a reduction in their criminal period or remission, not least for prisoners who are perpetrators of corruption. The government has issued Government Regulation Number 28 of 2006 concerning the Terms and Procedures for the Implementation of the Rights of Correctional Inmates. Convicts of criminal acts of corruption can be given remission if they meet the requirements of good behavior and have served 1/3 (one third) of their criminal period. The study was conducted to find out the things that became the basis for granting remissions to prisoners, including convicts who were perpetrators of criminal acts of corruption and to find out how the legal arrangements for granting remissions to prisoners who were perpetrators of corruption in positive law in Indonesia. The type of research is normative juridical research. The data was collected through a literature study, and the data obtained were processed using qualitative data processing methods. This qualitative analysis is then linked to relevant problems and theories so that the data obtained are descriptive. The results of the analysis show that the correctional system seeks to realize the social reintegration of prisoners in prison, therefore the basis for granting remissions to prisoners is to motivate prisoners to behave well and accelerate prisoners who are well behaved so that they can be released and return to society before the actual date of freedom. The legal rules for granting remissions to convicts who commit corruption crimes are Government Regulation Number 28 of 2006, but have not been equipped with implementing regulations. The government should immediately provide clarity to this regulation by issuing implementing regulations so as to provide legal certainty for the Directorate General of Corrections.

Criminal conduct can be held accountable when it meets two elements of such action as unlawful action and can be reproached. The nature of resisting the law itself is devided into two opposing qualities of formal law and the nature of resisting the law of materiel. The nature of the law regarding material itself has two fuction: itsnegative function and its positive work. Of these functions in application only to its negative (or exempted from the written law) function because of its positive function (an act not prohibited by the law but by society of the act is mistaken) and therefore is a violation of the law. This type of research is the normative study with the constitution approach (statue approach) and the conceptual approach. From this research it can be concluded that the repayment of all financial losses in the state can be excused/ fail d;excuse, so that the nature of resisting the laws of materiel’s negative function of the perpetrators of corruption is lost. The provision of article 4 of the constitution is judged as irrelevant because the application of a fixed sanction without seeing thr benefits of its ratification. This is based on the theory presented by Nigel Walker and Jeremmy Bentham, which says the application of criminal santions must be ideal and beneficial to the perpetrator. Keywords: Loss of Unlawful Character; Corruption; Recovery of State Losses.Perbuatan pidana dapat dimintai pertanggungjawaban apabila memenuhi dua unsur yakni perbuatan tersebut merupakan perbuatan melawan hukum dan perbuatan tersebut dapat dicela. Sifat melawan hukum itu sendiri terbagi dalam dua yakni sifat melawan hukum formal dan sifat melawan hukum materiel, Sifat melawan hukum materiel itu sendiri memiliki dua fungsi yaitu fungsinya yang negatif dan fungsinya yang positif. Dari kedua fungsi tersebut dalam penerapannya hanya diperbolehkan fungsinya yang negatif (atau perbuatan yang dapat dikecualikan dari hukum yang tidak tertulis) dikarenakan fungsinya yang positif (perbuatan yang tidak dilarang oleh undang-undang tetapi oleh masyarakat perbuatan tersebut dianggap keliru) sehingga fungsinya ini dianggap bertentangan dengan undang-undang. Jenis Penelitian ini ialah penelitian normatif dengan pendekatan undang-undang (Statute Approach) dan pendekatan konseptual (Conceptual Approach). Dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa dengan dikembalikannya seluruh kerugian keuangan negara maka perbuatan pelaku dapat dimaafkan/fail d;excuse, sehingga sifat melawan hukum materiel fungsinya yang negatif dari perbuatan pelaku tindak pidana korupsi hilang. Sehingga ketentuan dalam Pasal 4 UU dinilai sudah tidak relevan dikarenakan penerapan sanksi yang tetap dijatuhkan tanpa melihat manfaat dari penjatuhan sanksi tersebut. Hal tersebut berdasarkan pada teori yang dikemukakan oleh Nigel Walker dan Jeremmy Bentham, yang mengatakan bahwa penerapan sanksi pidana harus ideal dan bermanfaat bagi pelaku.Kata Kunci: Hilangnya Sifat Melawan Hukum; Korupsi; Pengembalian Kerugian Negara.
