The problems identified in this study are: (1) the legal status of children born from unregistered marriages following Constitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUU-VIII/2010 (a case study of the Rangkasbitung Religious Court Decision Number 423/PDT.G/2023/PA.RKS); and (2) the legal consequences of the rejection of itsbat nikah for unregistered marriages following Constitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUU-VIII/2010 (a case study of the Rangkasbitung Religious Court Decision Number 423/Pdt.G/2023/PA.Rks). This thesis employs a descriptiveanalytical method with a normative juridical approach. The findings indicate that the rejection of itsbat nikah does not automatically eliminate the legal status of children born from unregistered marriages. Following Constitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUU-VIII/2010, children continue to have a civil relationship with their biological fathers, provided that such relationship can be legally proven. However, the Rangkasbitung Religious Court Decision remains oriented toward formal justice and has not fully reflected substantive justice in the protection of children’s rights. Therefore, Constitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUU-VIII/2010 should serve as a primary legal foundation for judges in ensuring legal protection for children, even when applications for itsbat nikah are rejected. Furthermore, Rangkasbitung Religious Court Decision Number 423/PDT.G/2023/PA.RKS reflects the legal problems surrounding the status of children born from unregistered marriages, in which the application for itsbat nikah was rejected due to the failure to meet the requirements set forth in Article 7 of the Compilation of Islamic Law (Kompilasi Hukum Islam). This condition demonstrates the limitations of existing legal mechanisms in adequately protecting the rights of children born from unregistered marriages. date: 2025 type: Thesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/1/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_FULL%20TEXT.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/2/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_Bab%201.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/3/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_Bab%202.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/4/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_Bab%203.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/5/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_Bab%204.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/6/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_Bab%205.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/58561/7/DIMAS%20MAULANA_7773230043_Reff.pdf identifier: MAULANA, DIMAS (2025) AKIBAT HUKUM PENOLAKAN ITSBAT NIKAH TERHADAP KEDUDUKAN ANAK DARI PERKAWINAN SIRI PASCA PUTUSAN MAHKAMAH KONSTITUSI REPUBLIK INDONESIA NOMOR 46/PUU-VIII/2010 (STUDI KASUS PUTUSAN PENGADILAN AGAMA RANGKASBITUNG NOMOR 423/PDT.G/2023/PA.RKS).
