In the case concerning Territorial and Maritime Dispute between
Nicaragua and Honduras in the Caribbean Sea (Nicaragua v. Honduras), the
ICJ declared that:
The Court may accordingly, without specifying a precise
endpoint, delimit the maritime boundary and state that it extends
beyond the 82nd meridian without affecting third-States rights. It
should also be noted in this regard that in no case may the line
be interpreted as extending more than 200 [nm] from the
baselines from which the breadth of the territorial sea is
measured; any claim of continental shelf rights beyond 200 miles
must be in accordance with Article 76 of UNCLOS and reviewed
by the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf
established thereunder. (Judgment, I.C.J. Reports 2007, p. 659,
at p. 759, para. 319).
