Part 9 International Cooperation and Judicial Assistance: Coopération Internationale Et Assistance Judiciaire, Art.95 Postponement of execution of a request in respect of an admissibility challenge/Sursis à exécution d’une demande en raison d’une exception d’irrecevabilité
Keyword(s):
This chapter comments on Article 95 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Article 95 is part of an ensemble of provisions addressing the modalities of compliance with a request from the Court. It concerns challenges to admissibility, and allows a State to postpone compliance pending resolution of an admissibility challenge. The operation of article 95 is not dependent upon an initial determination by the Court. It is a prerogative that a State may exercise provided the necessary pre-requisites are in place. Thus, ‘the postponement of the execution of a surrender request while an admissibility challenge is pending falls within the prerogatives of the requested State and does not require a Chamber's prior authorization’.
