REVERSAL (bouvier) | REVERSAL, international law. First. A declaration by which a sovereign
promises that he will observe a certain order, or certain conditions, which
have been once established, notwithstanding any changes that may happen to
cause a deviation therefrom; as, for example, when the French court,
consented for the first time, in 1745, to grant to Elizabeth, the Czarina of
Russia, the title of empress, exacted as a reversal, a declaration
purporting that the assumption of the title of an imperial government, by
Russia, should not derogate from the rank which France had held towards
her. Secondly. Those letters are also termed reversals, Litterae Reversales,
by which a sovereign declares that, by a particular act of his, he does not
mean to prejudice a third power. Of this we have an example in history:
formerly, the emperor of Germany, whose coronation, according to the golden
ball, ought to have been solemnized at Aix-la-Chapelle, gave to that city
when he was crowned elsewhere, reversals, by which he declared that such
coronation took place without prejudice to its rights, and without drawing
any consequences therefrom for the future.
