EAST AFRICAN COURT OF JUSTICE LAW REPORT 2015 - 2017

Abstract

In 2015, the inaugural East African Court of Justice Law Reports were published in two volumes. Since then, the Court has developed jurisprudence in diverse subjects-areas including: the responsibilities of States and the Community for internationally wrongful acts or omissions of their organs; and reparations that can ensue for breaches of the Treaty for the Establishment of the East African Community, the Custom Union and Common Market Protocols and Community Laws. This volume, the largest the Court has produced so far, contains select cases: determined since 2015; some delivered virtually via video conference; and decisions where the Court’s Rules of Procedure 2019, that took effect in February 2020, have been applied. The Court is grateful to the Raoul Wallenberg Institute, Kenya Office for financial support towards the publication of this report. Hon. Justice Dr. E. Ugirashebuja President, EACJ Arusha, Tanzania November, 2020
