Type: article
Abstract: Notaries, as public officials regulated by the Notary Law (UUJN) and the Amendment of Notary Law (UUJN-P), play a crucial role in the creation of authentic documents and have the authority to guarantee the legality of legal acts. However, the cancellation of document copies by the court raises significant legal implications for the status of notarial minutes, which need to be further analyzed to establish legal certainty in notarial practices in Indonesia. This research aims to provide a deeper understanding of the legal status of notarial minutes after their copies are canceled, as well as to offer recommendations regarding necessary regulations to create legal certainty in notarial practices in Indonesia. This study employs a normative or doctrinal research methodology with a normative legal approach to examine the relevant legal principles and written regulations concerning the legal implications of the cancellation of document copies on notarial minutes. It utilizes primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials as sources, along with data collection techniques through literature studies and document analysis. The findings of this research indicate that the cancellation of document copies by the court renders the notarial minutes as informal documents or null and void due to the failure to meet legal requirements. Parties who disagree can file a lawsuit in court; notaries who do not withdraw the minutes risk becoming involved in legal issues and may be held civilly liable if found to have acted unlawfully, while criminal penalties may apply if false information is present in the documents.
