It also allows organizing in advance, the protection of a minor child or a disabled

not imposed by law). This will prevent the opening of a tutelage or curatorship.
- guardianship or anticipatedcuratorship for others which allows parents to

future for their adult child as of the day when they themselves will die or will not
be able anymore to continue to take care of the person concerned. They will be

3
be read by the Indonesian Notary to the signing parties; to make them
understand with the content of said notarial deed which has to be in
conformance with what they agree to doing so and the vulnerable natural
person such as minor, mentally disabled party should be represented by
his/her parent or guardian, and the Indonesian Notary who make the

who is unable to affix his/her signature the position of signature can be
the replaced with the statement at the closing part of the notarial deed
12. What is the role of the notary in the search for social cohesion and the protection
of human rights?
• The urgency and role of the notary in social cohesion and human rights
perspective is very dominant in the process of upholding, protecting and
fulfilling human rights in Indonesia. The duties, authority of the notary are
delegations from the state to service the community, not a profession of
national development, of course, is increasingly widespread and growing.
Fluency and the notary profession in carrying out the duties and
authorities granted by the state for public services. The government who
gives part of its authority to the Notary, through the Laws of Indonesian
Notary Duty (”UUJN”), and also the people who use the services of a
notary certainly has the expectation that the services provided by the
notary really have reliable values and weights, in addition to providing
legal certainty to legal subjects, providing justice ad security in society, can
also protect the community from disputes and fulfil the basic rights
guaranteed by the constitution for citizen.
The role of the notary as a public official as well as the legal profession
must prioritize service to the community. The function and role of a notary
in legal mobility in society is urgently needed as outlined in the provisions

4
of Article 16 of UUJN concerning the obligation of a notary is very urgent
in order to ensure legal certainty and order, protection, and fulfilment of
human rights with the truth. Authentic deed made by a notary clearly
determine the rights with the truth. Authentic deeds made by a notary
clearly determine the rights and obligations of the parties as legal subjects
in society, something that is not less important that the existence of an
authentic deed itself is, if an expectation manifested to avoid a dispute,
and this is one significant difference between a notary and an advocate. As
Tan Thong Kie (author and retired Indonesian Notary) said, “an advocate
defends a person´s rights when a difficulty arises, then a notary must try
to prevent such difficulties from occurring”-
Based on the spirit of the notary legal duties, we can know that the duties
and roles of notary in legal mobility in society and urgently needed to
uphold the Social Cohesion at the same time, protect and fulfil human
rights in the form of rights to justice and security as legal subjects for
welfare and prosperity.
So important is the obligation mandated by the UUJN to Indonesian
Notary in accommodating community needs, can be qualified into 2 (two)
things, namely:
1. Preventing disputes in the community. This is the main task of a
notary, namely, formulating the desires/actions the parties or the
people who need them in an authentic deed, taking into account the
applicable legal rules, so that they can guarantee certainty, order and
legal protection with truth and justice.
2. Resolving disputes that cannot be avoided in the community. Notary
deeds as authentic deeds have perfect proof power. If there is a dispute,
so that it does not need to be proven or added with other evidence, if
there is a person or party who assesses or states that the deed is not
true, then the person/party who assesses or states that it is not true
must be proved the judgement or statement apply. So that dispute
resolution in the community can be resolved immediately.

Mengenai pewarisan terhadap anak luar Regarding inheritance of illegitimate


kawin ini diatur dalam Pasal 862 s.d. child, it is regulated in Article 862-
Pasal 866 KUH Perdata: Jika yang Article 866 of the Civil Code: If the
meninggal meninggalkan keturunan deceased leaves a legitimate ancestry
yang sah atau seorang suami atau istri, or a husband or wife, then illegitimate
maka anak-anak luar kawin mewarisi child inherit 1/3 of the portion they
1/3 bagian dari bagian yang seharusnya should receive if they are legitimate
mereka terima jika mereka sebagai children (see Article 863 of the Civil
anak-anak yang sah (lihat Pasal 863 Code) .
KUH Perdata).

42
Jika yang meninggal tidak If the deceased does not leave the
meninggalkan keturunan maupun ancestry or husband or wife, but
suami atau istri, tetapi meninggalkan leaves the blood family, in the upward
keluarga sedarah, dalam garis ke atas line (mother, father, grandmother,
(ibu, bapak, nenek, dst.) atau saudara etc.) or male and female siblings or its
laki-laki dan perempuan atau ancestry, the recognized children
keturunannya, maka anak-anak yang inherit 1/2 of inheritance. However, if
diakui tersebut mewaris 1/2 dari there is family in a further degree, the
warisan. Namun, jika hanya terdapat recognized children receive 3/4 (see
saudara dalam derajat yang lebih jauh, Article 863 of the Civil Code);
maka anak-anak yang diakui tersebut
mendapat 3/4 (lihat Pasal 863 KUH
Perdata);

Bagian anak luar kawin harus diberikan The part of the illegitimate child must
lebih dahulu. Kemudian sisanya baru be given first. Then the rest is only
dibagi-bagi antara para waris yang sah divided between legitimate inheritors
