A quick definition of compromis:

Term: Compromis

Definition: A compromis is an agreement between two or more countries to let someone else decide how to solve a problem they have. This person could be an arbitrator, a group of arbitrators, or an international court. There are two types of compromis: ad hoc compromis, which is when countries agree to let someone else decide on a specific problem they have, and general compromis, which is when countries agree to let someone else decide on any problem they might have in the future.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Compromis is a French term used in international law to refer to an agreement between two or more countries to submit an existing dispute to the jurisdiction of an arbitrator, an arbitral tribunal, or an international court.

Examples:

  • An ad hoc compromis is an agreement in which countries submit a particular dispute that has arisen between them to an ad hoc or institutionalized arbitral tribunal or to an international court. For example, if two countries have a disagreement over a border dispute, they may agree to submit the issue to an international court for resolution.
  • A general compromis is an agreement in which countries submit all or a definite class of disputes that may arise between them to an arbitral institution, a court, or an ad hoc arbitral tribunal by concluding a general arbitration treaty or by including an arbitration clause in a treaty. For example, two countries may agree to include an arbitration clause in a trade agreement to resolve any disputes that may arise in the future.

The examples illustrate how countries can use compromis to resolve disputes between them. By agreeing to submit a dispute to an arbitrator, tribunal, or court, they can avoid the need for costly and time-consuming litigation and reach a resolution that is acceptable to both parties.

@Eminatorcookieeater: same and my sub status was blank yesterday - trying to research what it means
@shaquilleoatmeal: ooo I wonder what that means, hopefully it means we'll hear back soon
shaquilleoatmeal

It looks like an update to the sub status (it saying complete instead of being blank) means some sort of review has happened - basically a UR2. Seems like those who got a substatus change got a decision a few days after...
