Management of National Judicial System Control Based on Local Laws: A Case Study at the Mediation Center in Lombok, Indonesia

This study aimed to keep the quality of judges' decisions and to reduce the burden of cases that accumulate in the courts. This research was conducted through observation, interviews, and literature study at the mediation center in the Sasak community with a qualitative analysis, using a case and statute approach. It was found that based on the Regional Regulation Number 9 of 2018, the mediation center and the court can be integrated institutionally through several concepts: first, making the mediation center as a filtering instrument of dispute so that the court ultimately only functions as a final settlement; second, making the executive power on the peace agreement produced by the mediation center in a peace deed (vandading deed); third, the Sasak community's control-management procedure based on local laws in the form of the Mediation Center Institution is an alternative to resolve local community disputes.
