This article aims at clarifying some of the conditions that contribute to the obtaining of independent judges of the ICC, most notably the integrity, impartiality, competence and experience; and highlighting the criteria under which States parties must elect the judges of this Court. On the other hand, it reveals the legal and practical limitations that place unqualified persons on the same court. The study also provides solutions to the legal and practical shortcomings in the election of judges of the ICC, relying on international judicial expertise as well as on the criteria of equitable geographical distribution and gender parity of judges.
