Abstract
The principles of simple, speedy, and low-cost justice are fundamental in the administration of justice. This study aims to examine the implementation of these principles in the settlement of divorce cases among the community in the Masalembu Islands and analyse them from the perspective of Lawrence M. Friedman's legal system theory. This research uses an empirical legal research method with a legal sociology approach, collecting data through observation, interviews, and documentation, which are analysed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results indicate that the implementation of the principles of simple, speedy, and low-cost justice has not been optimally realised due to various obstacles such as high case fees, geographical conditions, manual summoning of parties, absence of parties, reliance on lawyer services, and the suboptimal application of the e-Court system. From the perspective of Lawrence M. Friedman's legal system theory, there are limitations in the legal structure of the court apparatus, inconsistencies in the substance of the law, and a legal culture in society that has not yet been supportive. Based on these findings and analyses, this study recommends the need for socialisation of the e-Court system to the public and adjustments to the procedural cost deposit policy for archipelagic regions.
