U.S. courts do have jurisdiction over diplomats for certain things, such as suits related to commercial activities.
- abduhl 4mo agoIs the child of a diplomat a US citizen if they are born during a diplomat’s commercial activities?
- ang_cire 4mo agoIf the diplomat put the baby up as collateral on a loan, prior to their birth, then I think they have to be in order for the US to be able to enforce contract law relevant to the loan.
- IAmBroom 4mo agoNo. Even the arguments at the time the amendment was passed discuss diplomats and their family being exempt, as well as all the instances since.
- wat10000 4mo agoWhat happens to a diplomat if they don't show up for the suit or comply with any judgment?
- TheCoelacanth 4mo agoThat's more like having jurisdiction over the diplomat's property in the country than having jurisdiction over the diplomat themselves.
