The Attorney General's Office of the Republic of Indonesia has issued a breakthrough in efforts to resolve cases through the termination of prosecution based on restorative justice. The Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Indonesia, a law enforcement officer referred to as a case controller based on the dominus litis principle has a significant role in determining the success of applying restorative justice in Indonesia. Therefore, this article examines and analyzes the implementation and inhibiting factors for stopping prosecutions based on restorative justice in settlement of criminal cases in the Lampung High Court area. The research method in writing this paper uses a normative juridical and empirical juridical approach, with 6 (six) sources from academics and the Public Prosecutor in the Lampung High Prosecutor's Office.
