dc.description.abstract | Married life does not always run smoothly and according to expectations. Various
reasons lead someone to choose to have more than one wife, including lack of
attention from their spouse, indications of infidelity, and sometimes merely to
satisfy carnal desires. However, often someone who decides to practice polygamy
without permission from others, especially the wife, is due to a lack of
understanding regarding the requirements contained in Law No. 1 of 1974
concerning Marriage. As a result, in several cases, such as the case of polygamy
annulment involving identity forgery that occurred at the Medan Religious Court
with Decision No. 2072/Pdt.G/2019/PA.Mdn. The problem formulations in this
thesis are: 1) How is the validity of polygamy without permission by committing
identity forgery according to Indonesian law, 2) What factors form the basis for
annulment of polygamous marriage without permission with false identity based
on legal perspective, 3) How are the judge's considerations in deciding the case
regarding the annulment of polygamous marriage due to identity forgery in
Decision No. 2072/Pdt.G/2019/PA.Mdn.
The research method used in this thesis is empirical juridical research,
which is descriptive in nature, using secondary data and employing
documentation or literature study for data collection, with qualitative analysis.
The research findings reveal that the validity of polygamy without
permission by committing identity forgery according to Indonesian law has
violated the marriage law provisions contained in Articles 4 and 5 of Marriage
Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning the requirements and procedures for polygamy.
The process of resolving the annulment case is conducted through legal
procedures at the Religious Court based on Law No. 7 of 1989. In deciding the
case, the judge considers the proof of violation elements and compliance with
applicable marriage legislation. | en_US |
