Judiciary of Indonesia

The Judiciary of Indonesia constitutionally consists of the Supreme Court of Indonesia (Mahkamah Agung Republik Indonesia, abbreviated into MA), the Constitutional Court of Indonesia (Mahkamah Konstitusi Republik Indonesia, abbreviated into MK), and the lesser court system under the Supreme Court. These lesser courts are categorically subdivided into the public courts (Peradilan Umum), religious courts (Peradilan Agama), state administrative courts (Peradilan Tata Usaha Negara), and military courts (Peradilan Militer).

The Public Prosecution Service (Kejaksaan Republik Indonesia), headed by the Attorney General, is not part of the judiciary; they are part of the executive branch of the government, with the state prosecutors themselves as civil servants, and the Attorney General themselves only answers to the President of Indonesia.
