Abstract
The concept of changing the offense in the law, cannot be separated from the copyright
law in general following the direction of the development of today's society. This is so that the
applicable law can continue to run properly. However, this change of offense certainly has its
own consequences or consequences, even more so for the creator or copyright holder who is the
main actor behind the birth of a work of creation.
This study aims to find out the formulation of changes in ordinary offenses into
complaint offenses in copyright law for creators in the perspective of criminal law and to
describe the consequences of criminal law arising from changes in offenses against copyright
infringement. This research is a legal research with the type of library research (library research)
with a normative legal approach. The main data source is secondary data. The data analysis used
in this research is descriptive qualitative data analysis.
The results of this study indicate that Article 66 of Law No.19 concerning the Year 2002
concerning Copyright states that the state still has the authority to enforce the law for direct
copyright infringement, in contrast to Law No.28 of 2014 concerning Copyright contained in
Article 120 allows the state to take legal action if there is a complaint process beforehand. The
consequences resulting from the change in the offense for the creator are that the creator has two
access to settlements in the event of a violation of his creation, namely settlement outside the
court and in court.
Based on the results of this research, it is hoped that it will become information and input
