- Abstract
Ulayat rights disputes must be taken seriously and resolved relatively in customary law communities. Customary justice aids. Minangkabau customary law community Ulayat land disputes, their resolution, and customary justice are examined in this study—normative legal research using secondary data. Data was analyzed using induction and deduction. Research shows that ulayat land conflicts are created by differences in views, beliefs, opinions, interests, and the position of ulayat and customary law groups over areas where land rights have not been awarded but are held by other parties. Litigation, non-litigation, or advocacy can resolve customary rights conflicts. Nagari Courts assist in settling community issues. Village Nagari Courts are governed by regional regulations, unlike statute-based courts. The 1945 Indonesian Constitution’s Article 18B paragraph (2) and Transitional Rules Article II recognize customary justice institutions to respect customary law communities’ rights.
