Four human rights groups have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over its economic sanctions targeting the International Criminal Court (ICC). The groups argue that these sanctions, which affect judges, prosecutors, and others associated with the ICC, unlawfully interfere with the court's work on international criminal justice.
The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday, August 12, 2026, in New York by the American Friends Service Committee and the Center for Constitutional Rights, among others. The plaintiffs contend that the sanctions campaign undermines the ICC's ability to carry out its mandate.
