Case concerning delimitation of the maritime boundary in the Gulf of Maine Area[edit]

Somewhat misleading to present this case as exemplar for "ex aequo et bono", since though it was decided on the basis of "equitable criteria", § 59 reads: "The Chamber is however bound by its Statute, and required by the Parties, not to take a decision ex aequo et bono, but to achieve a result on the basis of law." — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlmaTsuy (talk • contribs) 21:51, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Eritrea-Ethiopia Claims Commission[edit]

I initially deleted all but the first line of the paragraph dealing with the commission, but I undid that to raise the question here first.

Is the text at issue indicating that principals of law are not considered or that principles of equity praeter legem or ;contra legem, outside or against the law, respectively, or not considered. I suspect that the paragraph is incorrect at least in part for confusing, or at least blurring the line between, general principles of law and non-legal concepts of equity.IMHO (talk) 18:18, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Has this ever been used?[edit]

Outside of both parties agreeing, has this ever been used in modern history (19c+)? I mean, if both parties agree, they can do whatever they want... so that's no bar...
