Abstract

This article discusses the civilian aspect in defamation cases which is intended to reform law enforcement against defamation cases. This article uses normative research methods and uses a legislative approach. Defamation is indeed an act that violates the law and certainly harms the person whose reputation is tarnished, but with this loss, it is seen that it is possible to resolve this issue can be resolved through a civil law approach with aspects of illegal acts. This is because the application of criminal sanctions is the ultimate medium, and also of course the essence is to look at the resolution of the problem. Reformulation of law enforcement policy in defamation cases leading to civil settlement is of course intended so that the aggrieved person also receives compensation from the perpetrator, and also the perpetrator is obliged to pay compensation, so as not to release the perpetrator of defamation for the act committed, but not in the presence of criminal sanctions law enforcement.
