Judicial independence is when a separation of the powers exists between the judicial branch of government and legislative and executive branches of government. The executive and legislative branches are unable to control or influence judges' decisions in any way and cannot have an impact upon their decisions or threaten to sack them if they make the 'wrong' decision. This should not be confused with judicial neutrality, which is when no member of government or the public is able to put pressure on judges to come to a decision which they would not normally reach, or otherwise upset the judge so that he/she cannot make up their minds with complete impartiality.
The International Court of Justice (abbrev. ICJ) is similar to US courts in the sense that it's primarily influenced by the common law system even though judges from the civil law system are represented as well.

To dive the sense of security. Laws are made to force people to be good, because individuals are more controlled more by there passion and education alone can't make them good, so laws were created to scare people in being 'good'.
