Abstract
This study seeks to examine the elements that lead individuals to engage in fraud associated with coal mining partnerships and to evaluate the legal actions taken against these offenders as per Decision Number 595/Pid.B/2024/PN TJK. The study employs a normative legal and empirical legal methodology characterized by a descriptive research specification. Data were acquired through a literature review, analysis of court rulings, and interviews with investigators from Polresta Bandar Lampung, prosecutors from the Bandar Lampung District Attorney's Office, and judges from the Class IA Tanjung Karang District Court. Qualitative data analysis was performed utilizing the Crime Causation Theory as proposed by Topo Santoso and the Law Enforcement Theory as articulated by Satjipto Rahardjo. The findings indicate that the offense of fraud is affected by personal factors, economic conditions, social contextual influences, opportunity variables, and inadequate oversight, with personal factors being the most significant. Law enforcement in this instance has been executed via the phases of inquiry, prosecution, judicial review, and the delivery of a judgment in alignment with the criminal justice system's framework. According to Decision Number 595/Pid.B/2024/PN TJK, the accused was adjudged legally and convincingly culpable of perpetrating fraud as delineated in Article 378 of the Criminal Code and received a term of three years' imprisonment. This study determines that law enforcement has achieved legal clarity, justice, and utility; nonetheless, the restitution of the victim's material losses necessitates additional legal frameworks in compliance with statutory provisions.
