A Progressive Effort to Strengthen the System of Interconnection of Court Decisions on the Rights of Women and Children After Divorce

Abstract

The rights of women and children after divorce are frequently disregarded by former husbands, despite the existence of court judgments that obligate them to provide financial support to their ex-wives and children. This reality reflects a persistent gap between judicial rulings and their practical enforcement. Therefore, the development of an interconnected system is essential to ensure the effective implementation of divorce decisions, particularly in securing post-divorce entitlements for women and children. In response to this issue, this study seeks to examine progressive efforts aimed at reinforcing interconnectivity mechanisms within court rulings on divorce cases. This research adopts a normative legal methodology combined with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through an extensive review of relevant literature, and the findings were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method. The results reveal that enhancing the interconnectivity system necessitates not only technical improvements but also a paradigm shift in legal thinking. Judges must be encouraged to adopt a more humanistic perspective that prioritizes gender equity and child welfare in their decisions. To realize this goal, several concrete actions are required, including the integration of legal data systems, the digitalization of court rulings, continuous professional development for judges, and the formulation of specific regulations governing the enforcement of financial support through interconnected mechanisms. A comprehensive and collaborative approach of this nature can ensure that the rights of women and children in the aftermath of divorce are not only protected but realized in a fair and substantive manner. The implications of this study span across legal, institutional, sociological, and public policy dimensions.
