Abstract
According to Law Number 48 of 2009 concerning Judicial Power, which is an independent power to administer justice in order to uphold law and justice, judges play a vital role in the enforcement of the law in courts. They must be able to investigate and locate laws using a variety of methods. In the preparation of this study, the normative juridical approach was utilized. This study seeks to explain the concept of setting the Contempt of Court in the Indonesian criminal law system and the ideal concept of judge protection when carrying out their duties in protecting them. According to current research, there is no law that specifically regulates court contempt. The application of Article 351 of the Criminal Code in Contempt of Court cases is a setback for the Indonesian judicial system, and there are no legal protection standards for judges. Judges are the executors of Judicial Powers and are responsible for deciding cases fairly and they are entitled to be protected.
