Abstract

The District Courts are the main judicial mechanism commonly used as alternative for conflict resolution. The political? dominance makes the Courts are helpless in maintaining its independence. As a result 3 many judicial verdicts are not keen in interpreting the people's environmental rights * in Indonesia. Hence, for environmental litigation cases, the utilization of mechanism 1 outside the court room is encouraged even if there are some disadvantages and f weaknesses in exercising such practice. The objectives of this paper will firstly analyze the effectiveness of the existing conflict resolution mechanisms as regulated f by the EMAs in relation to environmental cases in Indonesia. Secondly, reviewing! to the 2004 Law No. 4 on the Judicial Power Kekuasaan Kehakiman) is to seek the! establishment of Environmental Court as a possible new instrument to address environmental conflicts.

Mostly data collected from the primary data, such as legislation, and regulations, the judicial verdicts and secondary data obtained journals on line. ThJ writing is critical and analytical. Hence, this paper finds that the District Court is not! a sole mechanism that may solve environmental conflict in Indonesia and that a ne\%J environmental judicial mechanism can be established to address issues pertaining to J environmental conflicts.
