Civil litigation is a dispute resolution mechanism between civil law subjects, both individuals and legal entities, through the court. The scope of civil disputes includes cases of default as stipulated in Article 1239 of the Civil Code, as well as acts against the law as formulated in Article 1365 of the Civil Code. In addition, civil litigation also includes special civil disputes, such as inheritance, land, and property. For example, a civil dispute can occur when a company does not carry out its obligations in a development cooperation agreement, thus causing financial losses for other parties. In such conditions, the aggrieved party can file a default lawsuit to the court to demand the fulfillment of achievements or compensation. Another example is the inheritance dispute between heirs that dispute the division of property, thus requiring a court decision to determine the rights of each party legally and bindingly.

Criminal litigation is the process of defense and legal assistance against suspects or defendants in the criminal justice system. The right of the suspect or defendant to obtain legal assistance is guaranteed in Article 54 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, which gives the right to be accompanied by a legal counsel at every level of examination. In certain cases, Article 56 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code requires the appointment of a legal counsel for suspects or defendants who are threatened with a five-year or more sentence and are unable. As an illustration, a person who is designated as a suspect in an persecution case has the right to obtain an advocate's assistance from the stage of investigation. In this case, the advocate plays a role in ensuring that the examination process is carried out in accordance with the provisions of the criminal procedure law, the rights of the suspect are respected, and the defense in the trial is arranged based on facts and valid evidence.

Banking and financial litigation includes dispute resolution arising from the legal relationship between customers and financial institutions, including credit, loan, collateral, and investment issues. The legal relationship is based on an agreement as stipulated in the Civil Code and subject to applicable banking provisions. As an illustration, disputes can arise when customers object to the execution of credit guarantees by banks that are considered not in accordance with the procedure. In that situation, customers can file a civil lawsuit to the court to test the validity of the bank's actions and obtain protection for their rights as a debtor.

Bankruptcy litigation and PKPU is a mechanism for resolving debt receivables through commercial courts. This mechanism provides legal space for debtors and creditors to settle obligations in a structured and measurable manner. As an illustration, companies that experience liquidity difficulties can apply for PKPU to negotiate debt restructuring with creditors. If an agreement is not reached, the creditor can file a bankruptcy application for the debtor's property in accordance with the applicable legal provisions.
