List of International Court of Justice cases information


The list of International Court of Justice cases includes contentious cases and advisory opinions brought to the International Court of Justice since its creation in 1946. Forming a key part of international law, 192 cases have been entered onto the General List for consideration before the court.[1]

The jurisdiction of the ICJ is limited. Only states have standing to bring a compulsory claim against another state, and then only with the consent of the responding state. However, certain United Nations bodies and agencies such as the UN General Assembly have the power to submit questions for advisory opinions.[2][3] Although these advisory opinions are not binding under international law, they do provide the ICJ's interpretation of what international law is.[4]
