The '''International Justice Court''' (Latin: ''Cura Internationalis Iustitiæ'') is the {{wp|judiciary|judicial body}} of the [[League of Nations]] and the premier venue for the arbitration of disputes under {{wp|international law}}. Created in 1961, the Court's primary functions are to settle international legal disputes submitted by states (contentious cases), oversee cases relating to human rights as defined by the [[Code of the League of Nations]] and to give advisory opinions on legal issues referred to it.
 
The Court's mandatory jurisdiction comes from three sources: the [[Code of the League of Nations]], general international conventions and special bipartite international treaties. The Court can issue either judgments or advisory opinions. Judgments are directly binding while advisory opinions were not. On occasion, the Court has been accused of extending its jurisdiction. Strictly speaking, it was allowed to intervene only in matters of international law or law specifically brought to it by firms in two nations.
