A ruling is a decision delivered by a judge in a trial, aimed at resolving a dispute or legal matter between the parties involved. There are various types of rulings, such as Declarative Rulings, Constitutive Rulings, Condemnatory Rulings, Contradictory Rulings, and Default Rulings. Each ruling has two kinds of authority: binding authority and executive authority, which refers to the power to enforce the ruling. Judges play a central role and have a significant responsibility in upholding the law and justice. Therefore, judges' professionalism must continually be improved to ensure that rulings are fair and in accordance with applicable regulations. Not only judges, but all members and staff of the Religious Courts are also required to enhance their professionalism in performing their duties. This is particularly important considering the expanded jurisdiction of Religious Courts in handling cases in the field of Islamic economics, which is still relatively new. As a result, the application of the concept of judicial rulings in Indonesia’s Religious Courts must continue to evolve to meet the public's expectations for justice based on the law.

This research examines the effect of current ratio and company size on profit growth in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2015 to 2023. All companies in this sub-sector are the research population, with sample selection using purposive techniques based on certain criteria. A total of 72 observation data were analyzed using a quantitative approach through multiple linear regression. Data were obtained from the annual financial reports that have been officially published. The results of the analysis show that the current ratio does not have a significant effect on profit growth, indicating that the level of liquidity does not always contribute directly to profitability. On the other hand, company size has a significant effect, indicating that a larger operational scale and the availability of adequate resources have a positive impact on profit performance. These findings are expected to be a reference in making corporate financial decisions and considerations for further research in the field of corporate finance.

Denpasar is a major fisheries hub in Bali, with Benoa Harbor serving as a docking site for large fishing vessels. The decline in catch volume and annual production has increased the urgency of implementing environmentally friendly fishing and resource management practices. Fishers in Serangan continue to use handline fishing gear, prompting the need for research to assess its environmental friendliness. This study employed a survey method, collecting data through field observations, interviews, and questionnaires. The analysis was conducted based on nine criteria of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) with a sample of 30 respondents. The results show that handline fishing has high selectivity, targets octopus (Octopus sp) as the main catch, and has minimal impact on habitats and biodiversity. The lowest score was recorded in the criterion of minimum discarded catch due to the presence of bycatch such as skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) and giant trevally (Caranx ignobilis), although these species still have market value. The total score obtained was 32.83, placing handline fishing in the highly environmentally friendly category.
