Cases before Australian Courts and Tribunals concerning Questions of Public International Law 2022

Abstract

The Sydney Centre for International Law (SCIL), within the University of Sydney Law School, was established in 2003 as a centre of excellence in research and teaching in international law. Each year, the Centre’s interns prepare an article for the Australian Year Book of International Law about the role of international law in Australian courts, under supervision of SCIL staff. This year's article reviews decisions made in 2022 by select federal courts (the High Court of Australia, Federal Court of Australia, and newly created Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia), along with the state and territory supreme and appeal courts, in which international law played a part.
