Domestic courts (States immunity from jurisdiction of other States…
Domestic courts
-
-
-
international law obligations which prevent domestic courts from entertaining claims when the respondant is a foreign State or international organization, or State officials prosecuted abroad
-
officials
crimes committed abroad (Pinochet, Warrant case DRC)
rationae personae (acts performed privately or officially, before or during the mandate for a head officer); for diplomats : only in the case of their mission
temporary because a State can waive it and also they can leave, but not its sovereign immunity
-
immunity total can be set aside by a treaty (ex : States party to ICC) except for high representative
rationae materiae (exist because the act of the official is attribuated to the State which has immunity = official acts immunity (head of Government Foreign affairs Mniister, diplomats + all State organs (<> rationae personae))
still exists => continue to benetif from criminal immunity for acts during the mandate after the end of the official functions; cannot be waived (Djibouti vs France)
