The Peace Palace houses both the International Court of Justice and the Permanent Court of Arbitration, where Judy works as the General Counsel. She also works for the International Council of Commercial Arbitration as Managing Editor of their Yearbook and other publications. This building was constructed with funds from Andrew Carnegie at the beginning of the 2oth Century. Queen Wilhelmina of The Netherlands and Tsar Nicholas II of Russia were the leading figures in the creation of a court to settle international disputes in order to avoid war. The Peace Palace is filled with lovely pieces of art donated by many countries. Judy worked here from 1997 until her retirement in 2007.
