page no 168 note 1 The Department of State revised its regulation governing passport issuance in cases where custody of a minor is in controversy, by a final rule issued June 28, 1979, effective August 17, 1979. In such instances, the passport-issuing office may refuse to issue a passport to the minor if it receives a court order from a court within the country in which passport services are sought, either giving custody of the minor to the objecting parent, legal guardian, or person in loco parentis, or forbidding the child’s departure from the country in which passport services are sought without the court’s permission (44 Fed. Reg. 41,777 (1979), to be codified in 22 C.F.R. §5l.27(d)).

page no 170 note 2 The rule referred to in note 1 supra revised the Department’s regulation prohibiting issuance of passports, except for direct return to the United States, in cases where the applicant is subject to a court order, conditions of probation, or conditions of parole, any of which forbid departure from the United States, to apply to criminal cases also where the applicant’s departure could subject the applicant to the Federal Fugitive Felon Act (18 U.S.C. §1073) (to be codified in 22 C.F.R. $51.70(a)(2)).

Title 22, C.F.R., part 71, subpart B sets out regulations covering emergency medical-dietary and other assistance for U.S. nationals incarcerated abroad who are otherwise unable to obtain such services. They were established pursuant to Pub. L. 95–45, §3, June 15, 1977, 91 Stat. 221, 22 U.S.C. §267Q(j).

a The jurisdictional analysis generally follows the approach taken by the American Law institute’s Restatement (Second) of the Foreign Relations Law of the United States.

b Examples of the use of the nationality principle are provisions of U.S. statutory law relating to collection of internal revenue, treason, selective service, and the subpoena power, which are applicable and can be enforced against U.S. nationals wherever they are found.
