When the Bell Doesn't Save You: Favianca and Jurisdiction After ICSID Denunciation

When the Bell Doesn't Save You: Favianca and Jurisdiction After ICSID Denunciation

Publication

Manuel Cases publishes a post titled “When the Bell Doesn't Save You: Favianca and Jurisdiction After ICSID Denunciation” in the Kluwer Arbitration Blog. The post analyzes the recent ICSID Award in Favianca v. Venezuela and, more broadly, addresses the issue of international claims filed after a State has denounced a treaty but before that denunciation has become effective. In addition to looking at other ICSID awards that have dealt with this situation, Mr. Casas also refers to decisions by the ICJ and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.
