19 See the treaties listed in note 4 above. An interesting case arose in the Belgian courts in connection with the Franco-Belgian Treaty of 1899, which removes the applicability of Art. 14 (jurisdiction based on Trench nationality of the plaintiff). A judgment was obtained in Trance on the basis of Art. 14 against an Englishman. The highest court in Belgium refused to enforce the judgment. Belg.
