The carriage of goods by rail : [case review]

Veljko Vujović ; Zagreb, Hrvatska

Abstract

The consignee can make the complaint or bring the suit against the railway as a carrier. Other persons, including the consignor, have this right only if they prove that the consignee has assigned the right to them. This is not affected by the fact that the consignor who is the seller of goods, has compensated the consignee, the buyer, for the damage caused by thr shortage of cargo upon delivery.
Although the consignor as a seller has compensated the damage to his buyer, the consignee, in this case the consignor, has not thereby acquirwd the right to claim the damages from the railway. This is so because there is no legal relationship between the contract of sale and the contract of carriage in relation to the railway.
