ENEMY (bouvier) | ENEMY, international law. By this term is understood the whole body of a
nation at war with another. It also signifies a citizen or subject of such a
nation, as when we say an alien enemy. In a still more extended sense, the
word includes any of the subjects or citizens of a state in amity with the
United States, who, have commenced, or have made preparations for commencing
hostilities against the United States; and also the citizens or subjects of
a state in amity with the United States, who are in the service of a state
at war with them. Salk. 635; Bac. Ab. Treason, G.
2. An enemy cannot, as a general rule, enter into any contract which
can be enforced in the courts of law; but the rule is not without
exceptions; as, for example, when a state permits expressly its own citizens
to trade with the enemy; and perhaps a contract for necessaries, or for
money to enable the individual to get home, might be enforced. 7 Pet. R.
586.
3. An alien enemy cannot, in general, sue during the war, a citizen of
the United States, either in the courts of, the United States, or those of
the several states. 1 Kent, Com. 68; 15 John. R. 57 S. C. 16 John. R. 438.
Vide Marsh. Ins. c. 2, s. 1; Park. Ins. Index. h.t.; Wesk. Ins. 197; Phil.
Ins. Index. h.t.; Chit. Comm. Law, Index, h.t.; Chit. Law of Nations,
Index, h.t.
4. By the term enemy is also understood, a person who is desirous of
doing injury to another. The Latins had two terms to signify these two
classes of persons; the first, or the public enemy, they called hostis, and
the latter, or the private enemy, inimicus.
