The International Court of Anteria (ICA), sometimes known as the World Court, the Supreme Court of the World, or more simply - the International Court is an international governmental organization that settles disputes between its member states in accordance with international law and gives advisory opinions on other various areas of international law. The court's decisions are only binding to its member states, however it is on its member states to collectively work together to enforce the courts decisions. The court will occasionally hear disputes on non-member states, however these decisions are only advisory and non-binding. The court will also take no action to ensure enforcement of advisory opinions. Currently, the ICA is the only international court that adjudicates general disputes between countries, with its rulings and opinions serving as primary sources of international law.
The ICA was established on January 4th, 2015. The Charter of the ICA sets forth its purposes, rules, statues, format, and procedure. The ICA is a bench of 7 judges elected by delegates for twenty-year terms. The International Court is headquartered in Cartwright, Layfet

Selected Cases

Lev Smirnov of | Smirnov v. International Community | 7 Augustus 2020. | Terrorism (Domestic) | Smirnov had committed a terrorist act in Kentalis which resulted in the death of 48 citizens. After his arrest, he was tried in the ICA under the Terrorism Clause. The Court ruled that Smirnov was guilty of Domestic Terrorism, reasoning that the overwhelming evidence was indisputable. The Court sentenced Smirnov to life in person. He is current serving his Live-Sentence in Kentalis. | Smirnov was the case that established the Court's power to hear domestic terrorism cases. As during trial Smirnov objected to the court's jurisdiction arguing that his actions were an internal Kentalis mater. The court however unanimously defended its jurisdiction, holding that "parties to the charter intended all terrorism to be subject to this court's review" because "terrorism is such a grave act that concerns the international community as a whole, regardless of how localized it may be." |
