This isn't the 'World Court', this is the ICTY. It is a tribunal.
The trial has taken a very long time. There is really no excuse, but it should be noted Milosevic did everything in his power to stall proceedings. He vigourously contested the legality of the Tribunal, and as the only indicted individual representing himself it made matters more difficult. Also consider that there were many individuals tried, translations of all materials into at least three languages, Milosevic's failing health, and the difficulty and future significance of the actual case of genocide against him.
