الطعن في قرارات و أحكام المحكمة الجنائية الدولية

Abstract EN

This research aims to study the legal framework for the mechanism of reviewing decisions and judgments before the International Criminal Court, where its statute adopted the principle of litigation in two degrees by recognizing the right to appeal against its final decisions, as well as in the interlocutory decisions taken by the Pre-Trial Chamber and the Trial Chamber during the litigation procedures.

It also guarantees to the convicted or his family members a request to review its judgments having authority of res judicata by seeking reconsideration whenever its conditions are met.

This study shows the evolution of the appeal in the international criminal justice process.

The texts governing the work of the International Criminal Court have devoted the exercise of this right to many of the guarantees established by the International Bill of Human Rights in pursuit of a fair international criminal trial.

This was evidenced by the extensive powers enjoyed by the Appeals Chamber during its adjudication of appeals, where it can cancel or amend the decision or order a new trial.
