Abstract
Judges as holders of judicial power have been given freedom and independence in resolving disputes in the daily life of every citizen. However, this freedom and independence in judicial power are limited by the existence of sufficient legal considerations as the basis for formulating decisions through an interpretive process based on legal norms and concrete facts in the process of proving before the trial of criminal cases. Despite these limitations, the judge’s ability to make decisions is through communication competence as part of language and legal activities (berrechten). This study used an approach using the concept of Power Relations and Social Praxis. This study aims to find the limitations of communication competence as a form of truth-play from judges through trying and deciding criminal cases. The results of this study indicate that a series of laws and regulations open up opportunities for the disparity in decisions to occur by ignoring the principle of sufficient legal considerations.
