Extent of jurisdiction
1086. For the purposes of this Code, the jurisdiction of the Courts of this State extends to every place in this State within three miles of any part thereof.
Liability for act done partly beyond jurisdiction
1087. When an act, which, if wholly done within the jurisdiction of the Courts, would be an offence against this Code, is done partly within and partly outside the jurisdiction of the Courts the person who within the jurisdiction does or aids and abets any part of such act may be tried and punished under this Code in the same manner as if the act had been done wholly within the jurisdiction of the Courts.
1. The Court has jurisdiction only with respect to crimes committed after the entry into force of this Statute.
2. If a State becomes a Party to this Statute after its entry into force, the Court may exercise its jurisdiction only with respect to crimes committed after the entry into force of this Statute for that State, unless that State has made a declaration under article 12, paragraph 3.
1. A State which becomes a Party to this Statute thereby accepts the jurisdiction of the Court with respect to the crimes referred to in article 5.

3. If the acceptance of a State which is not a Party to this Statute is required under paragraph 2, that State may, by declaration lodged with the Registrar, accept the exercise of jurisdiction by the Court with respect to the crime in question. The accepting State shall cooperate with the Court without any delay or exception in accordance with Part 9.
