Abstract

One of the features of the Marshall Court’s business that emphasizes the contrast between that Court and its modern counterpart is the attention given to piracy cases. Piracy, defined as the unauthorized deprivation of property on the high seas, has disappeared from the present Court’s docket, and virtually disappeared as a crime; but from 1815 to 1823, piracy cases were among the most numerous and controversial of those decided by the Court.
