Meaning the Phrase “Own Demand” in Leadership In East Java

Abstract

This study uses normative legal research that uses legislation and current conditions to carry out legal interpretation. In this case, the phrase "self-request" is defined as a request that originates from his own awareness that his actions have harmed the community.  This means that there is no conflict preceded by the act of resigning oneself.  Self-awareness of actions is important to understand the meaning of “self-demand”. The Governor of East Java is better off resigning at his own request because this action will make the state focus on legal certainty.
