Ship operator's fault - The Litispendence : [case review]
Veljko Vujović
; Zagreb, Hrvatska
Abstract
The ship operator's liability is unlimited if the collision is caused by his personal fault. The ship operator is personally liable if the ship was not properly manned before the voyage has commenced. No litispendence occurs if there is no parallel court proceeding existing at the same time between the same parties and involving the same claim. In case of the ship operator's unlimited liability the ship operator cannot contend that the establishment of the limited liability fund serves as an exclusive source for the satisfaction of creditors' claims. The ship operator is also liable for the loss of profit.
