This research examines the implementation of the principle of openness in the examination of cases in civil court proceedings in Indonesia, focusing on two main issues: (1) how the principle of openness is regulated and applied in civil court practices, and (2) what key obstacles hinder the implementation of this openness. The purpose of the study is to provide an in-depth overview of the mechanisms for implementing the principle of openness in the civil judicial process and to identify inhibiting factors that need to be addressed promptly in order to make the judicial system more transparent and accountable. This study employs a normative juridical method with a statutory and conceptual approach. Data were obtained through literature review, including legislation, legal doctrines, and relevant court decisions, and analyzed using a descriptive-analytical method. The findings indicate that the principle of openness is well accommodated normatively within Indonesia’s civil judicial system; however, its implementation still faces significant challenges, such as limited supporting facilities, inadequate dissemination among judicial officers, and the tension between protecting the privacy of parties and ensuring public access to information. To address these issues, improvements in technological infrastructure, human resource training, and internal policy revisions are essential steps to optimize the principle of openness in civil court proceedings.

. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the principles of transparency and accountability in the management of the Village Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBDes) in Sowanlor Village, Kedung Sub-district, Jepara Regency, in 2024. The research method used is descriptive qualitative analysis, with a focus on secondary data analysis.

This study aims to analyze the legal aspects of public information disputes in the context of state administration, focusing on the Decision of the Jakarta State Administrative Court (PTUN) Number 410/G/KI/2024/PTUN.JKT. A public information dispute is a dispute between a public agency and an information applicant regarding the right to obtain and use public information based on laws and regulations. In the era of globalization and the development of information technology, access to public information is one of the important pillars in realizing transparent and accountable governance. In Indonesia, the right to public information is guaranteed by Law Number 14 of 2008 concerning Openness of Public Information (UU KIP). However, in practice, disputes often occur between public agencies and the public regarding the fulfillment of the right to information. The Decision of the Jakarta PTUN Number 410/G/KI/2024/PTUN.JKT is an important case study because it reflects the dynamics of law in resolving public information disputes at the state administration level. This study uses a normative legal approach with a case study method. Data were obtained from the analysis of PTUN Jakarta decisions and related legal documents. The results of the study show that public information disputes often occur due to unclear boundaries between information that can be accessed by the public and that which must be protected. The Jakarta PTUN decision emphasizes the importance of consistency in the application of the Consequence Test Sheet and emphasizes that information related to public services must be open to public access. This study contributes to understanding the legal complexity behind public information disputes and provides recommendations for improving the dispute resolution system in the future. In addition, this study also reminds us of the importance of a balance between public information transparency and personal data protection, especially in the context of state administration.

The archiving of case documents that have obtained permanent legal force (inkracht) at the State Administrative Court (PTUN) of Banjarmasin is a crucial aspect of judicial administration, serving to maintain the accuracy of legal documentation while supporting transparency and accountability within the judicial system. This process includes the recording, storage, and disposal of documents in accordance with applicable regulations, as stipulated by the Supreme Court and national archival regulations. From the perspective of Public Administration Theory, archival management must be conducted systematically and based on regulations to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of judicial services. Meanwhile, according to the Theory of Judicial Transparency and Accountability, information openness in archival management plays a significant role in building public trust in the judiciary. Although PTUN Banjarmasin has implemented an archiving system that complies with established standards, challenges in the digitalization of archives remain an obstacle, particularly in terms of technology optimization and human resource readiness. Therefore, strengthening digital-based archival systems and enhancing judicial administrative capacity are strategic measures to improve document management efficiency, reduce the risk of loss or damage to physical archives, and reinforce judicial transparency and accountability.

Transparency in the management of upstream oil and gas contracts in Indonesia is crucial to ensure the efficient and accountable management of natural resources. The two main contract schemes applied, Cost Recovery and Gross Split, each face challenges related to transparency. In the Cost Recovery scheme, transparency issues are related to the verification of costs submitted by contractors, while in the Gross Split scheme, transparency is needed in determining objective production-sharing parameters. Digital technology emerges as a solution to improve accountability, but its implementation requires strong regulatory support and infrastructure investment. The principle of good faith between the government and contractors is also a key factor in achieving effective transparency. Strengthening the capacity of SKK Migas as the regulatory body and ensuring information openness to the public are essential to building trust and creating sustainable management.

Transparency and accountability are essential principles in good governance. However, there are still many challenges in achieving transparency and accountability within bureaucratic environments. This study aims to: 1) investigate the level of information openness and decision-making processes in government agencies; 2) identify best practices for enhancing transparency and accountability in bureaucracy; and 3) analyze the impact of transparency and accountability on public trust in the government.

Transparency of financial reports today is very wide open with advances in technological development. Openness of financial report information allows the public to assess the quality of financial reports. The quality of good financial reports can be seen from the results of opinions by the public accounting profession who provide services to assess the fairness of financial reports.
