William E. Chapman v. United Mexican States

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  12 April 2017

Extract

It is unnecessary to give any detailed consideration to the generalities of writers on international law who have repeatedly stated that consular officers are entitled to special protection.In the instant case the special protection is concerned with a situation in which there was a threat against the personal safety of the consul, an explicit warning of imminent danger promptly communicated by him to the proper authorities, some assurances of special protection were received by him upon which he was warranted to rely, but no such protection was given.
