The Indonesian criminal justice system upholds the principle of legal certainty to ensure the protection of the rights of all parties involved in legal proceedings. One of the recurring issues is the ambiguity regarding the timeframe for Investigators to submit case files to Public Prosecutors, particularly in minor offense cases. Article 110 of the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) merely states the word "immediately" without specifying a definite time limit, creating opportunities for delays without firm legal consequences. This research employs a normative juridical method with a conceptual and evaluative approach to analyze statutory provisions and their practical application in Indonesia. The findings reveal that although ethical and disciplinary sanctions are regulated within internal police regulations, there is no explicit legal norm governing sanctions for Investigators who fail to promptly submit case files. Consequently, it is necessary to revise Article 110 of KUHAP by establishing a clear and binding timeframe, while strengthening both internal and external supervisory mechanisms to uphold legal certainty and enhance the effectiveness of the criminal justice system. Furthermore, public participation through digital media can serve as a form of social control over the negligence of law enforcement officers in Indonesia.

This study analyzes the implementation of the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM) at Alfapro Stationery. The analysis results indicate that Alfapro Stationery has applied several basic principles of SAK EMKM in preparing its financial statements, such as recognizing fixed assets based on acquisition costs, recording inventory, and recognizing revenue and expenses. The financial statements prepared include the statement of financial position, income statement, and notes to the financial statements, supported by a computer-based accounting system (AIO System) that helps generate automatic financial reports every month, thereby increasing accuracy and transparency. However, Alfapro Stationery has not been able to separate personal and business assets, violating the "Separate Economic Entity" concept, which is fundamental in preparing financial statements according to SAK EMKM. Although the company's financial statements formally appear to meet the requirements of SAK EMKM, the lack of clear separation between personal and business assets indicates non-compliance with the standard.
