Abstract

Article 62 remained a deadletter for almost seventyyears. The Chamber constituted to settle the frontier dispute between El Salvador and Honduras has changed this picture, and has allowed Nicaragua to intervene with respect to the legal régime of the GulfofFonseca. But it only accorded a non-party status to Nicaragua. However, the full Court had refused permission to intervene in two earlier cases with arguments that were based on the premiss of a party status for the intervening State. Only a future decision on a request for permission to intervene can tell whether the full Court will endorse the stances taken by the Chamber.
