“I hope it brings wisdom and blessings for the Constitutional Court and for the nation and state,” said Anwar Usman at the Presidential Palace complex in Jakarta on Friday (10/4/2026). Anwar Usman stated that there are no specific issues for Liliek Prisbawono to address. According to Anwar, Liliek can work as a constitutional justice in accordance with the authority of the institution. “No, just resolving cases related to the constitutional mandate. Article 24C is clear; the authority of the Constitutional Court is to adjudicate and decide cases related to laws. Then, to adjudicate or decide cases related to authority between state institutions. Thirdly, the dissolution of political parties, and fourthly, the resolution of election result cases. Those are the main ones,” he said. High court judge from the Medan High Court, Liliek Prisbawono Adi, is known to become a Constitutional Court justice replacing Anwar Usman. Liliek Prisbawono read the oath of office as a Constitutional Court justice in front of Prabowo. The inauguration of the constitutional justice oath was held at the State Palace, Jakarta, on Friday (10/4/2026). The oath-taking was witnessed directly by President Prabowo. Liliek Prisbawono was inaugurated wearing the red toga of a Constitutional Court justice and a black peci. Liliek serves as a Constitutional Court justice from the Supreme Court element right after reciting the oath. The process of reading the Constitutional Court justice oath began with the playing of the national anthem Indonesia Raya. After that, Liliek read the oath in front of Prabowo. “By God, I swear that I will fulfil the duties of a constitutional justice to the best of my ability and as fairly as possible, uphold the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, and carry out all laws and regulations as straight as possible according to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, and serve the nation and country,” reads the oath recited by Liliek.
