Article 92

The International Court of Justice shall be the principal judicial organ of the United Nations. It shall function in accordance with the annexed Statute, which is based upon the Statute of the Permanent Court of International Justice and forms an integral part of the present Charter.

Article 93

All Members of the United Nations are ipso facto parties to the Statute of the International Court of Justice.

A state which is not a Member of the United Nations may become a party to the Statute of the International Court of Justice on conditions to be determined in each case by the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Supreme Council.

Article 94

Each Member of the United Nations undertakes to comply with the decision of the International Court of Justice in any case to which it is a party.

If any party to a case fails to perform the obligations incumbent upon it under a judgment rendered by the Court, the other party may have recourse to the Supreme Council, which may, if it deems necessary, make recommendations or decide upon measures to be taken to give effect to the judgment.

Article 95

Nothing in the present Charter shall prevent Members of the United Nations from entrusting the solution of their differences to other tribunals by virtue of agreements already in existence or which may be concluded in the future.

Article 96

The General Assembly or the Supreme Council may request the International Court of Justice to give an advisory opinion on any legal question.

Other organs of the United Nations and specialized agencies, which may at any time be so authorized by the General Assembly, may also request advisory opinions of the Court on legal questions arising within the scope of their activities.

Article 97

The International Court of Justice shall have original and final jurisdiction in all matters:

(1) arising under this Charter, or involving its interpretation;
(2) arising under any laws made by the General Assembly;
(3) of maritime and border jurisdiction;
(4) arising under any treaty;
(5) affecting consuls or other official representatives of Member States;
(6) in which the United Nations, or a person suing or being sued on behalf of the United Nations, is a party;
(7) between Member States, or between residents of different Member States, or between a Member State and a resident of another Member State;
(8) in which a writ of Mandamus or prohibition or an injunction is sought against an officer of the United Nations.

Article 98

The International Court of Justice shall represent the final and conclusive court of appeal in all matters determined from all judgments, decrees, orders, and sentences:

(1) of any Justice or Justices exercising the original jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice;
(2) of any other court of a Member State in which the Member State acknowledges the final jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice, or court exercising national jurisdiction; or of the Supreme Court of any State, or of any other court of any State;

Article 99

By virtue of the powers and functions defined in this Charter, it shall be a principle purpose of The General Assembly to make laws and a principle purpose of the International Court of Justice to preside and judge over cases brought in regards to these laws. This is a principle of the separation of powers.

In so far as judgments of the International Court of Justice affect the function and effect of the laws of the General Assembly, the Court shall not be permitted to use its verdicts as an alternative means of creating new law or regulation.

However, it shall be considered a primary role of the International Court of Justice to ensure that the laws and resolutions of the United Nations at all levels reflect the good principles of this Charter and the fair principles of justice.

Where laws or resolutions by the General Assembly or by the Supreme Council in anyway contradict the principles of this Charter and/or fails to execute effectively its function or purpose it shall be considered a requirement of the International Court of Justice to ensure that such laws and regulations are properly read down and rendered ineffective in their enforcement.
