Remembering: Article 7B and Article 24C paragraph . of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. Law Number 24 of 2003 concerning the Constitutional Court (State Gazette of the Republic of Indonesia of 2003 Number 98. Supplement to the State Gazette of the Republic of Indonesia Number 4. Based on a systematic interpretation of the final nature and binding of the decision of the Impeachmet to the laws and regulations, there is a legal vacuum. The following explanation is in accordance with the legal content of PMK No. 21 of 2009: Article 7B of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Analysis: The MPR is the last institution to determine the status of the President and / Vice President after the DPR and Constitutional Court processes are completed. This means that even if the Constitutional Court states that the President and / Vice President are proven to have violated the law, or have committed a disgraceful act, or have no longer fulfilled its requirements, the President and / Vice President will not be automatically dismissed immediately. Simply put, the constitutional court has four authorities and one obligation which is mandated by both the 1945 Constitution and the Constitutional Court Law. In article 24C paragraph . relating to the authority of the Constitutional Court outlines the final nature of the decision. As for the obligation of the constitutional court in deciding the opinion of the DPR in the termination of the President and / or Vice President in Article 7B of the 1945 Constitution relating to article 24C paragraph . does not give the nature of the decision of the Constitutional Court.
