Abstract

This study is directed towards finding answers about the social basis of the community regarding local wisdom in Court, and the socio-juridical relevance of the judiciary in bridging the gap between the people and the aspirations that are so plural towards the legal logic that is centralised and technical. This problem arises when the problems faced by society today in the field of justice, especially in the civil field are: "how to obtain legal certainty without sacrificing justice and guarantees of harmony, and how to obtain justice and guarantees of harmony supported by legal certainty. " The approach used is a qualitative research method with a type of sociological research juridical. The results showed that the court community is a place to seek justice. So that the court aims at resolving disputes in society fairly, the judicial mechanism must not only rely on procedural aspects but also how to make people feel accommodated in the judicial procedure. For this reason, a compatible court mechanism needs a form of justice that can accommodate proportionally and equitably the formal and informal aspects with a new vision that respects the value system and the needs of the community. This scholarship concludes that in solving problems in rural communities, it is necessary to obtain formal certainty through negotiating and familial processes. © Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
