There are two types of criminal law: misdemeanors and felonies.
1. Misdemeanors are considered lower-level criminal offenses, such as minor assault,
traffic violations, or petty theft. Meanwhile not as severe as felonies, misdemeanors can
still carry penalties of up to one year in jail, fines ranging from hundreds to thousands
of rupiah.
2. The most serious criminal offenses, such as those resulting in or threatening serious
bodily harm to someone, or causing someone's death, are categorized as felonies.
 CLASSIFICATION
Criminal Law is divided into two main branches, material
criminal & formal criminal :
First Material criminal law regulates the
determination of criminal acts,
perpetrators of criminal acts, and
penalties (sanctions). In Indonesia,
material criminal law regulations are
regulated in the criminal law book
(KUHP)
Second Formal criminal law is the law used as a
basis for law enforcers. In a simple sense, formal
criminal law regulates how the state deals with
equipment to carry out its obligations to investigate,
impose, prosecute and carry out crimes. In Indonesia,
formal criminal law regulations have been legalized
with Law number 8 of 1981 concerning criminal
procedural law (KUHAP).

or private entities. Civil law systems can be divided into several categories
1. Contract law: regulates agreements between two parties, including the formation,
implementation, fulfillment and breach of contracts.
2. Ownership law: regulates ownership rights to property, including the acquisition, transfer
and protection of property rights.
3. Family law: regulates the relationship between husband, wife, children and family, such as
marriage, divorce, child custody, guardianship and financial rights in the family.

there is a violation of a criminal act that has been regulated in criminal law or contains something
that is prohibited and is a form of threat to the perpetrator. for example theft, fraud, murder,
abuse, rape, corruption and others.

civil law contains the legal relationship between one legal subject and another, as well as the
rights and obligations of that legal subject. for example, debts and receivables, inheritance,
ownership of goods, marriage, divorce, defamation, child custod.
