The literature review contains theories that are relevant to the research problem. As well as using normative juridical and philosophical approaches. The research results found were as follows; First, based on the chronology of what happened, including, Chronology of Case Decision 135/ Pid.B/ 2016/ PN Stg, Chronology of Case Decision 94-K/ PM.II-09/ AD/ V/ 2016, Chronology of Case Decision 36/Pid.
