    The document analyzes the constitutionality of the United States modifying its acceptance of compulsory jurisdiction by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in response to Nicaragua filing a suit against the U.S. regarding mining of Nicaraguan harbors and attacks on oil installations and ports. The author argues that while the U.S. has the sovereign right to modify its acceptance of ICJ jurisdiction, doing so in this instance in response to a specific pending case may undermine the court's integrity and effectiveness.
