FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
[Docket No. 23-14]
D.F. Young, Incorporated, Complainant v. Wallenius Wilhelmsen
Logistics, Respondent; Notice of Filing of Complaint and Assignment
Served: December 13, 2023.
Notice is given that a complaint has been filed with the Federal
Maritime Commission (the ``Commission'') by D.F. Young, Incorporated
(the ``Complainant'') against Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics (the
``Respondent''). Complainant states that the Commission has
jurisdiction over the complaint pursuant to 46 U.S.C. 41301, 40904,
41102, and 41104 and 46 CFR 515.42.
Complainant is a corporation organized and existing under the laws
of Pennsylvania with a principal place of business in Berwyn,
Pennsylvania and is in the business of providing services as an ocean
transportation intermediary and operates as a non-vessel operating
common carrier.
Complainant identifies Respondent as a corporation organized and
existing under the laws of New York with a principal place of business
in Parsippany, New Jersey and as a common carrier of goods by water for
hire.
Complainant alleges that Respondent violated 46 U.S.C. 41102 and 46
CFR 515.42 regarding a failure to establish, observe, and enforce just
and reasonable practices relating to receiving, handling, storing, and
delivering property and a failure to pay compensation when the common
carrier's tariff provides for such payment. Complainant alleges these
violations arose from a refusal to compensate for freight forwarding
services on shipments of automobiles in accordance with the terms of
the applicable tariff following demand for such compensation.
An answer to the complaint must be filed with the Commission within
25 days after the date of service.
The full text of the complaint can be found in the Commission's
electronic Reading Room at <a href="https://www2.fmc.gov/readingroom/proceeding/23-14/">https://www2.fmc.gov/readingroom/proceeding/23-14/</a>. This proceeding has been assigned to the Office of
Administrative Law Judges. The initial decision of the presiding judge
shall be issued by December 13, 2024, and the final decision of the
Commission shall be issued by June 27, 2025.
Alanna Beck,
Federal Register Alternate Liaison Officer, Federal Maritime
