Leks and Fitri Nabilla have been published in Paradigma Hukum Pembangunan (Perspective on Development Law), a journal managed by Faculty of Law of Unika Atma Jaya Jakarta.

The journal article focuses on the application of Article 32 (2) of Government Regulation on Land Registration. Its objective is to observe the extent to which Article 32 (2) and its elements are implemented in court. Based on the normative legal research method with case study approach in court from 2009 to 2021, the authors found that out of 355 decisions, in their legal consideration, the panel of judges did not refer to Article 32 (2) in 299 decision (84%). The panel of judges however referred Article 32 (2) in 53 decisions (16%).
