In 2011, the club was illegally profiteering identity of Persija Jakarta (IPL) to compete in the Indonesian Premier League (IPL) and thus becoming the clone of Persija ISL that competed in the Indonesian Super League (ISL). Then, the court ruling on 23 October 2012 stated that they must to relinquish their claim to the name and identity of Persija Jakarta, because the dispute won by Persija ISL which the one that has the trademark rights of Persija Jakarta and has genuine legality that is continuous from the previous season, so Persija IPL used the name Jakarta F.C., in the 2013 Indonesian Premier League competition.^[1] After the IPL was disbanded, signifying the end of dualism in Indonesian football, the club became defunct on 24 March 2013.^[2]
