Proses hukum bergulir, Pengadilan Negeri Mataram memberikan vonis bebas kepada Nuril. Namun, Penuntut Umum mengajukan kasasi dan Mahkamah Agung akhirnya memvonis Nuril bersalah dengan hukuman pidana penjara 6 bulan kurungan dan denda lima ratus juta rupiah. Inilah yang kemudian memunculkan polemik. Masyarakat memprotes putusan yang dianggapnya tidak adil tersebut. Kekecewaan masyarakat kepada hukum sangat terasa melalui berbagai gerakan untuk membela Nuril, baik melalui penggalangan dana maupun aksi demonstrasi. Mereka kecewa kepada hukum yang nyatanya malah memberi hukuman pada seorang korban pelecehan seksual. Berbagai persepsi buruk terhadap hukum bermunculan, masyarakat ramai memberi pandangan awam mereka terhadap kasus ini. Secara ilmiah, kasus ini semestinya dapat diuraikan dengan jelas melalui ilmu hukum, terlebih melalui filsafat hukum. Adalah tugas kita sebagai akademisi untuk menguraikan setiap duduk peristiwa kasus menjadi lebih terang, agar tidak menimbulkan kesesatan berpikir di masyarakat. Berdasarkan uraian ini, penulis akan menjawab permasalahan mengenai bagaimanakah cara berhukum objektif yang diterapkan dalam kasus ini, serta bagaimana telaah filsafat hukum melalui kajian paradigma akan menguraikan persoalan hukum ini. Pembahasan akan dijabarkan dalam paradigma penulis yakni paradigma konstruktivisme dan melalui metode hermenutikal/dialektikal.

The legal process was rolling, the Mataram District Court gave Nuril a free verdict. However, the Public Prosecutor filed an appeal and the Supreme Court finally sentenced Nuril guilty to a sentence of 6 months imprisonment and a fine of five hundred million rupiah. This is what later led to the polemic. The community protested the decision which he considered unfair.
