Because the Land Sale and Purchase Deed can only be issued by a Public Official, namely a Notary and PPAT. This study uses a normative juridical method with an empirical sociological approach. Data was obtained through analysis of legal documents and through direct interviews related to Land Deed Making Officials. The analysis was carried out using Jeremy Bentham's Welfare State Theory, Talcot Person's Intermediate Theory, Wida Gdo's Applied Theory and H.D Stoud's Authority Theory as quoted by Ridwan HR From the research results, it is known that PPAT is a general official whose job is to make certain deeds, especially deeds of transfer of land rights as regulated in PP No. 37 of 1998, PPAT is responsible for the deeds it makes both administratively, civilly and criminally.
