2022 International Court of Justice judges election information


The 2022 International Court of Justice election was held on 4 November 2022 at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City. The General Assembly and the Security Council concurrently elected Leonardo Nemer Caldeira Brant for remainder of the nine-year term of office that had been held by Judge Antônio Cançado Trindade, who died in May, 2022.[1][2]

Three candidates were nominated by the national groups of the Permanent Court of Arbitration: Professor Marcelo Kohen, from Argentina (nominated by seventeen national groups); Professor Paulo Borba Casella, from Brazil (nominated by the Brazilian national group); and Professor Leonardo Nemer Caldeira Brandt, from Brazil (nominated by six national groups).

In casual elections produced by the death of a judge, it is expected that the judge will be replaced by a national of a member of the same regional group (but not necessarily from the same country).[3] In this case, the vacancy should have been filled by a national of a member of the Latin American and Caribbean Group in the United Nations. Therefore, the election of any of the three nominated candidates (Kohen, Casella, or Nemer) would have been in line with the established tradition.
