FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
[DOCKET NO. 24-11]
Notice of Filing of Complaint and Assignment; OL USA LLC,
Complainant, v. Maersk A/S, Respondent
Served: February 14, 2024.
Notice is given that a complaint has been filed with the Federal
Maritime Commission (the ``Commission'') by OL USA LLC (the
``Complainant'') against Maersk A/S (the ``Respondent''). Complainant
states that the Commission has subject matter jurisdiction over the
complaint pursuant to the Shipping Act of 1984, 46 U.S.C. 40101 et seq.
and personal jurisdiction over the Respondent as an ocean common
carrier as defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102.
Complainant is a limited liability company formed and existing
under the laws of the state of Delaware with a principal place of
business in Westbury, New York, and a shipper, as defined in 46 U.S.C.
40102(17), in the business of providing non-vessel-operating common
carrier services.
Complainant identifies Respondent as a foreign corporation
organized and existing under the laws of Denmark with a principal place
of business in Copenhagen, Denmark, and an ocean common carrier as
defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102(18).
Complainant alleges that Respondent engaged in unreasonable and
deceptive acts that violated 46 U.S.C. 40501 and 46 CFR part 520.
Complainant alleges these violations arose from a dysfunctional online
tariff platform maintained by the Respondent, and the platform
prevented access to and review of Respondent's tariffs.
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/24-11/">https://www2.fmc.gov/readingroom/proceeding/24-11/</a>. This proceeding has been assigned to the Office of
Administrative Law Judges. The initial decision of the presiding judge
shall be issued by February 14, 2025, and the final decision of the
Commission shall be issued by August 29, 2025.
David Eng,
Secretary.
