"We show that #climate litigation can lead to the implementation of significant policy changes. The paper concludes by arguing that with each successful climate case taken against a state, the corpus of international jurisprudence grows and reverberates, creating a ‘domino effect’ in climate litigation. Each judgment adds to the resource base of case law that can be cited in the future, serving to intensify the pressure on policymakers."

Robert Levy, a senior-level attorney at Exxon Mobil is retiring from the oil and gas company this month and joining the Justice Department’s Energy and Natural Resources Division.

"#Israel’s foreign intelligence agency, ran its own parallel operation which sought out compromising information on [the court’s preceeding chief prosecutor] Bensouda and her close family members in an apparent attempt to sabotage the ICC’s investigation. The agency’s former head, Yossi Cohen, personally attempted to “enlist” Bensouda and manipulate her into complying with Israel’s wishes […] causing the then-prosecutor to fear for her personal safety."
