''The Schooner Exchange v. M'Faddon'', is a United States Supreme Court case concerning the Federal courts' jurisdiction over a claim against a friendly foreign military vessel visiting an American port. The court, interpreting customary international law, determined that there was no jurisdiction. ==Facts== The schooner ''Exchange'', owned by John M'Faddon and William Greetham, sailed from Baltimore, Maryland, on October 27, 1809, for San Sebastián, Spain. On December 30, 1810, the ''Exchange'' was seized by order of Napoleon Bonaparte. The ''Exchange'' was then armed and commissioned as a French warship under the name of ''Balaou''. When the vessel later docked in Philadelphia due to storm damage, M'Faddon and Greetham filed an action in the district court to seize the vessel, claiming that it had been taken illegally. The district court found that it did not have jurisdiction over the dispute. On appeal, the circuit court reversed the decision of the district court, and ordered the district court to proceed to the merits of the case.〔''McFadden v. the Exch.'', 16 F. Cas. 85, 88 (C.C.D. Pa. 1811) ''rev'd sum nom''. ''The Schooner Exch. v. McFaddon'', 11 U.S. 116, 3 L. Ed. 287 (1812)〕 The Supreme Court reversed the circuit court's decision, and affirmed the district court's dismissal of the action.
