Currently, several trials make use of the characteristics of international and domestic courts known as hybrid courts. These are more efficient and effective, trying to mitigate the restrictions of both types of courts while offering the advantages of both the international courts and national courts. These complex courts will be applied depending on the agreement and the dispute situation in the recipient country. As an example, there is a mixed model of Sierra Leone with both a local judge and an international judge. It aims to link local customs and national law with international law.
The Nuremberg Court and the Tokyo Court have made a great contribution to the development of the International Penal Code and were still in their infancy. These courts were the only examples of the International War Crimes Court for decades, but they finally became models for a new series of international criminal courts established since the 1990s. Furthermore, "crime against peace", "crime by war", and "crime against humanitarian" described in the "Nuremberg Charter" are the first use and definition of these terms in the adopted international document. These terms and definitions were adopted nearly verbatim in the IMTFE Charter, but they were later replicated and expanded in various international legal documents.
