About This Course

This CLE course examines the legal framework surrounding liability theories that may be applied to the owner and operator of the container ship Dali following its collision with and damage to the Francis Scott Key Bridge on March 24, 2024.

The session will explore available defenses for ship owners and operators, including the possibility of limiting liability under federal law, as well as defenses against cargo interests under the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act (COGSA).

The course will also address the potential liability of third parties and discuss the rules for recovering pure economic losses sustained by affected parties due to the 11-week closure of the Port of Baltimore.
