  • United States V. Klintock: Reconsideration of United States V. Palmer As to General Piracy As Defined
    FOREWORD Title United States v. Klintock: Reconsideration of United States v. Palmer as to General Piracy as Defined by the Law of Nations through the Applicable Standards of Political Action of Acknowledgement and Recognition and the Status of Statelessness. Author Justin L. Sieffert Document Type Article Publication Date December 2016 Keywords 1820, Piracy, General Piracy, “Law of Nations,” Privateer, Pardon. Abstract During the February 1820 Term, the Supreme Court of the United States decided four significant piracy cases, beginning with United States v. Klintock. Political, economic, and social pressures enhanced the problem of piracy affecting the interests of the United States. Responding to the criticism of his decision in United States v. Palmer and the passage of the Act of 1819 state Congressional intent for defining piracy by the “law of nations,” Marshall authored the decision in Klintock distinguishing Palmer and, upon reconsideration, interpreting the Act of 1790 to include general piracy as defined by the “law of nations.” With a broader interpretation, federal courts had the jurisdiction to consider cases of general piracy regardless of the character of the vessel or nationality of the offender if the vessel operated under the flag of an unacknowledged foreign entity and if an American interest was at issue. While serving as the foundation for the final three piracy cases to endure broad enforcement authority over piracy, the story of Klintock did not end with the decision. An internal controversy over missing evidence in the case due to an alleged conspiracy implicated other parties in the piracy and demonstrated the internal policies and political considerations Monroe administration in the aftermath of the piracy cases.

Elliott Roosevelt, Sr. – A Spiral Into Darkness: the Influences by Raymond E. Spinzia . Cornelius Van Schaack Roosevelt I (1794-1871) was the first Roosevelt to settle in what is today the Nassau County section of New York’s Long Island.1 In the 1860s he chose the Oyster Bay area as the seat of his country residence and was quickly followed by other members of the Roosevelt clan. Indeed, by the early 1900s the present-day Village of Cove Neck had become a virtual Roosevelt family compound. While other Roosevelts chose different sections of Long Island in which to reside, the only Roosevelt to build a residence in the vicinity of the Village of Hempstead was Elliott Roosevelt, Sr. (1860-1894), the son of Theodore and Martha Bulloch Roosevelt, Sr., who resided in Manhattan and at Tranquility in Oyster Bay Cove.2 Martha’s health, in the best of times, was fragile. The stress created by the Civil War took its toll on her health and, in turn perhaps, on that of her children who seemed to experience one debilitating health event Tranquility after another. With news of the each Confederate defeat, Martha, a Southern patriot, became increase- ingly despondent and obsessed with neatness and cleanliness. Reclusive, rarely leaving her Manhattan brownstone, she began taking to her bed for weeks at a time with complaints of chest pains.3 In a belated attempt to alleviate Martha’s condition, the Roosevelts began renting Tranquility in 1874.
