Preliminayr Study On The Advisory Jurisdiction Of International Criminal Court, Ying Yang

Ying Yang

The Rome Statute and the Regulations of the International Criminal Court stipulate the very detailed contentious jurisdiction, but the Advisory Jurisdiction are not mentioned. Advisory jurisdiction, as the complement of the contentious jurisdiction, not only provides the other aspect support of legal basis for the settlement of international disputes, but also provides a new way of legal remedies for the statutory advisory qualified international organizations and other subjects of international law.

Plead Guilty, Without Bargaining: Learning From China’S “Summary Procedure” Before Enacting Indonesia’S “Special Procedure” In Criminal Procedure., Choky Risda Ramadhan Mr. Jul 2014

Plead Guilty, Without Bargaining: Learning From China’S “Summary Procedure” Before Enacting Indonesia’S “Special Procedure” In Criminal Procedure., Choky Risda Ramadhan Mr.

Choky Risda Ramadhan Mr.

Because Indonesian courts are increasingly overrun with criminal cases, Indonesian lawmakers recently introduced a criminal procedure bill to include “special procedure” (jalur khusus), a procedure that allows defendants to plead guilty in order to increase efficiency.

Beyond Paroline: Ensuring Meaningful Remedies For Child Pornography Victims At Home And Abroad, W. Warren H. Binford

W. Warren H. Binford

This article considers how the United States could fulfill its international treaty obligations to support the full restoration of child pornography victims in the aftermath of the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court in Paroline v.
