Urgensi Pembentukan Pengadilan Maritim Bagi Industri Maritim di Indonesia

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the urgency of establishing a maritime court and its contribution to the maritime industry in Indonesia. The research method used is normative research with a statue approach, study case approach and conceptual approach. The results of this research show that the absence of a Maritime Court in Indonesia means that legal issues in the maritime sector cannot be resolved effectively because it takes a long time, so the presence of a Maritime Court in Indonesia will make a big contribution, especially legal certainty in the maritime sector, where all forms of violations and losses resulting from ship operations can be resolved effectively, especially regarding shipping claims. As is the case, the Dutch Maritime Court (Maritime Chamber) has an important role in resolving maritime claims as a result of the operation of a ship by issuing a ship detention order. Meanwhile in England, the Maritime Court (Admiralty Court) also has the authority to issue a ship detention order so that if the ship owner goes to court to resolve maritime claims or allow the ship to be executed, the proceeds will be used to cover any losses arising from the operation of the ship.
