Read a random definition: jury charge

A quick definition of jus gentium publicum:

Jus gentium publicum is a type of law that governs the relationships between nations and international organizations. It also applies to individuals who invoke their human rights or commit war crimes. It is also known as public international law, law of nations, or law between states. Customary international law is a principal source of this legal system, which is legally binding and accepted by states. Private international law, also known as international conflict of laws, regulates disputes of a private nature, even if one of the parties is a private state. It is a part of each legal system's private law and should not be confused with public international law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Jus gentium publicum refers to the legal system that governs the relationships between nations. It is also known as international law and includes not only nations but also international organizations and individuals who invoke their human rights or commit war crimes. It is a set of rules that countries agree to follow when dealing with each other.

Examples: One example of jus gentium publicum is the Geneva Conventions, which are a set of international laws that protect people who are not taking part in a conflict, such as civilians, medical personnel, and prisoners of war. Another example is the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which sets out the rights and responsibilities of countries in their use of the world's oceans.

Explanation: These examples illustrate how jus gentium publicum is used to regulate the behavior of nations and individuals in their interactions with each other. The Geneva Conventions provide a framework for how countries should treat people who are not taking part in a conflict, while the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea sets out rules for how countries should use the world's oceans. These agreements help to promote peace and cooperation between nations by providing a common set of rules that everyone agrees to follow.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
