🔍 Key Concepts

• Mutual release of seamen in foreign ports and the role of the U.S. Consul • Who must personally appear before the Consul for a valid discharge/release • Whether a ship’s agent or special circumstances (like hospitalization) legally replace the Master’s appearance

💭 Think About

• Think about what the law specifically says about when the Master’s personal appearance can be excused—does it depend on convenience, medical emergencies, lack of wage disputes, or something else? • Consider whether a third party (like an agent) is ever treated as equivalent to the Master for this consular purpose. • Ask yourself: in which option is the Consul still clearly able to confirm that the seaman’s rights (especially wages and release from the ship) are properly protected?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option preserves the Consul’s ability to protect the seaman’s interests and confirm free, informed consent. • Check whether any option assumes that an agent can legally substitute for the Master in this specific consular process. • Confirm if the law ties the exception to objective circumstances of the seaman’s condition/location, rather than just agreements or authorizations by the parties.
