The government is trying to reform national law in the field of criminal law by drafting a Criminal Code Bill (RUU KUHP) to replace Wetboek van Strafrecht. The culmination of this preparation was the promulgation of the Criminal Code Bill on January 2, 2023, through Law No. 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (KUHP). However, there are not many articles that discuss the process and critical analysis of living law formulation as stated in the provisions of Article 2 of the Criminal Code and their explanations. The research method used was legal research with statute, historical, comparative legal, and conceptual approaches. The results of this research conclude that the living laws are formulated inconsistently in terms of scientific substance. In order to make this formulation can realize justice based on Pancasila, it can be achieved in several ways. First, there is a need to reinterpret living legal concepts by involving experts in customary law, legal anthropology, legal sociology, and interdisciplinary legal researchers. Second, redefining the meaning of law that lives within the body of the Criminal Code is not limited to customary law, especially the principle of legality, but also includes customary law and traditional laws in traditional societies. Third, formulating formal law/criminal procedural law as the enforcer of material criminal law/National Criminal Code by re-establishing and recognizing customary courts in the Indonesian criminal justice system whose application in society is to realize the fifth principle of social justice for all Indonesian people from Pancasila.

This study aims to provide an analysis of the many cases of distribution of non-food animal meat for consumption purposes that have recently received attention, such as the rampant sale of cat and dog meat which often occurs in society. Cats and dogs are pets kept by humans. These animals are not included in the consumption of livestock. Consumption of non-food animals is a heinous act that can become a zoonotic vector. This study uses normative legal research methods with several approaches, namely the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The results obtained are that there are laws and regulations related to the distribution of non-food animal meat for consumption purposes, but some of these regulations do not mention the imposition of sanctions on the distribution of non-food animal meat for consumption purposes. Criminal laws should provide for the torture of animals and the distribution of non-food animal meat for consumption and sanctions. This is considering the dangers of consuming non-food animals which have the potential to harm the wider community.

The aspect of compensation is very crucial in land acquisition for development for the public interest. The Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 2 of 2012 concerning Land Procurement for Development in the Public Interest (PTBPKU Law) is "drowned" by the many cases of land disputes that are so complex. The regulations regarding land acquisition contained in the PTBPKU Law are indeed correct, but when viewed in terms of substance, they still leave several separate notes. Several things need to be studied more deeply, primarily related to the basic concept of acquiring land rights for the public interest and compensation assessment. This paper aims to provide legal protection for land rights holders who reject the amount of payment in the PTBPKU Law and compare it with the latest regulation of land acquisition, namely the Job Creation Act. The writing method used is a normative juridical method using the Statute Approach and the Comparative Approach. The PTBPKU Law, as amended by the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation, has not been able to fully protect the holders of land rights affected by land acquisition for development in the public interest. Regulators should pay more attention to matters relating to compensation for land rights holders. How to cite item: Budiastanti, D., Laila, K., Sabrina, N., Wisnuwardhani, D., Wisuda, S. (2022).
