Findings: There is a limitation on the period for filing a lawsuit for joint property acquired between husband or wife during the marriage to ensure legal certainty. The obstacles experienced regarding the application of the statute of limitations for joint property lawsuits can occur due to strong local customs, strong cultural influences between communities in each region, and a lack of understanding in the community regarding joint property. Therefore, the way to overcome this is by frequently socializing to provide an understanding to the community regarding what the statute of limitations and joint property are.
