Abstract: The word corruption has become popular among the people. It indicates that public attention to corruption is growing. Corruption in the form of damaging the state’s financial management has caused financial losses of the state. It is therefore essential to conduct a study on corruption, particularly on the sentence in which the defendant is required to restore for the state’s financial loss. The objective of formulating Law Number 31 Year 1999 on Corruption Eradication as amended by Law Number 20 Year 2001 is to prevent the financial use of both the State Budget (APBN) and the Regional Government Budget (APBD) from being corrupted. As a countermeasure against corruption, the restoration for state’s financial loss is imposed to those committing corruption. The restoration can be applied in two ways: by requiring the defendant to pay some of money or by seizing the defendant’s assets and by imposing imprisonment to the defendant.
