Keywords: essence of the right of access to court; state immunity; customary rule of international law; effective alternative means of securing redress; victims of German barbarity
Summary/Abstract: The commented judgment makes the essence of the right of access to court an ius cogens norm — as such it takes precedence over state immunity that amounts only to a customary rule. At the same time it maintains the necessary balance between interests of entities recognized by international law and individuals, which had not been accomplished by the International Court of Justice, the Italian legislator or the national courts of other countries, including the Polish Supreme Court.
