Abstract
This article examines the decision of the Blitar Religious Court in a joint debt case in terms of the principle of justice. The lack of clarity regarding the provisions for sharing joint debt in Indonesian civil law has encouraged judges to do legal reasoning. The subjectivity of judges in interpreting the values of justice has given rise to disparities in the legal construction of judges in joint debt cases. This research is an empirical juridical research using a case approach and a philosophical approach. The results of the study show that the panel of judges at the Blitar Religious Court determines the distribution of shared debt equally (half-half) in all cases. The division of joint debt at the Blitar Religious Court can be classified into two. First, the decision is considered to have given a sense of justice because each party has made an equal contribution to the family and the division of debt is given in a balanced manner. Second, the decision is considered to lack justice because the contribution of each party in the family is not the same but the distribution of the debt is given equally.
