Abstract

Abuse of circumstances is one of the doctrines used by judges in deciding cases in the field of contractual disputes. This doctrine has long been introduced into Indonesia as a form of legal development. Where judges in examining cases can conduct legal discovery, legal interpretation, and legal reasoning, this is an implementation of judges being asked to find the law when they feel there is no law or when there is a legal development that aligns with what is currently under examination. Therefore, this study aims to examine the use of legal doctrines in contract law in Indonesia, with a focus on the implementation of contract law doctrines and the role of judges in finding contract law doctrines. This study employs normative legal research with several research approach methods, including conceptual approaches and legal comparative approaches.
