This research aims to dig deeper into the relationship between mood, emotions, and societal legal compliance. The urgency of research lies in understanding the role of individual moods and emotions in legal compliance in society. Stability, security, and justice in society depend primarily on the level of compliance with the law, and this research highlights that an individual's mood and emotions can be a crucial factor in such compliance behavior. The focus of this research lies in the approach taken in analyzing the relationship between mood, emotions, and legal compliance, in contrast to previous research, which focused more on external factors such as law enforcement or socio-economic characteristics. This research approach method is sociological juridical and focuses on qualitative data. This research provides new insights into how these psychological factors influence legal compliance behavior in society. The finding is that positive moods, such as happiness and peace, promote higher legal compliance, while negative moods, such as anxiety or anger, can reduce legal compliance. The conclusions of this research emphasize the importance of considering psychological aspects in designing effective law enforcement policies and strategies. Understanding how mood and emotions influence legal compliance behavior can improve legal compliance and create a safer and more stable environment.

This study aims to discuss whether Indonesia, as one of the countries dominated by the tradition of the civil law system, is still very rigid to provide space for judges to make law formation. However, is the interpretation of the law in the context of a legal discovery process also very limited in countries with a civil law system tradition? Furthermore, whether the dominance of the civil law system tradition in Indonesia affects the development of the use of legal interpretation by judges. These things will be discussed later in this  article. In providing justice, judges are required to not only look for la bouche de la loi but must actively explore the meaning behind the regulations to produce a decision that provides justice for the litigants. However, the civil law system tradition, which is still influenced by the notion of legism, has limited space for judges to exercise discretion and is based solely on the principle of legality. This research was conducted with a doctrinal research method with a qualitative approach.  This study found that, in Indonesia, the practice of legal interpretation carried out by judges is developing quite well. Many judges have interpreted the law to make legal discoveries if the legal arguments in the cases they are handling are unclear or need to be interpreted further. The method of legal interpretation that is often used is the method of grammatical interpretation with extensive interpretation. This proves that the phenomenon of the dominance of the civil law system tradition is slowly weakening, and the regulations in the Law on Judicial Power open a gap for judges to actively make legal discoveries, one of which is through legal interpretation.Penelitian ini hendak mengkaji mengenai situasi di Indonesia sebagai salah satu negara yang didominasi oleh tradisi civil law system masih sangat kaku untuk memberikan ruang gerak bagi Hakim untuk melakukan pembentukan hukum. Penelitian ini memotret mengenai keterbatasan perkembangan penerapan interpretasi hukum dalam rangka sebuah proses penemuan hukum sangat dibatasi di negara-negara tradisi civil law system. Sehingga dapat menjawab pnegaruh dominasi tradisi civil law system di Indonesia terhadap perkembangan penggunaan interpretasi hukum oleh Hakim. Hal-hal tersebut yang kemudian akan dibahas dalam tulisan ini. Dalam memberikan keadilan Hakim dituntut untuk tidak sekedar mencari la bouche de la loi, namun harus secara aktif menggali makna di balik peraturan sehingga menghasilkan suatu putusan yang memberi keadilan bagi para pihak yang berperkara. Namun tradisi civil law system yang masih dipengaruhi oleh paham legisme membuat keterbatasan ruang gerak bagi Hakim untuk melakukan diskresi dan tetapi berpatokan pada asas legalitas semata. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode penelitian doctrinal dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Dari penelitian ini ditemukan bahwa, di Indonesia praktik interpretasi hukum yang dilakukan oleh para Hakim berkembang dengan cukup baik. Banyak Hakim yang telah melakukan interpretasi hukum guna melakukan penemuan hukum apabila dalil hukum dalam kasus yang ditanganinya tidak jelas atau perlu untuk dimaknai lebih lanjut. Metode interpretasi hukum yang sering digunakan adalah metode interpretasi gramatikal dengan interpretasi ekstensif. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa sebenarnya fenomena dominasi tradisi civil law system perlahan melemah dan peraturan dalam UU Kekuasaan Kehakiman membuka celah bagi para Hakim untuk secara aktif melakukan penemuan hukum salah satunya melalui interpretasi hukum.
