FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
[Docket No. 24-17]
Samsung Electronics America, Inc., Complainant v. Orient Overseas
Container Line Limited and OOCL (Europe) Limited, Respondents; Notice
of Filing of Complaint and Assignment
Served: March 28, 2024.
Notice is given that a complaint has been filed with the Federal
Maritime Commission (the ``Commission'') by Samsung Electronics
America, Inc. (the ``Complainant'') against Orient Overseas Container
Line Limited and OOCL (Europe) Limited (the ``Respondents'').
Complainant states that the Commission has subject matter jurisdiction
over this complaint pursuant to the Shipping Act of 1984, as amended,
46 U.S.C. 40101 et seq. and personal jurisdiction over the Respondents
as common carriers and as vessel-operating ocean common carriers as
these terms are defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102.
Complainant is a corporation organized and existing under the laws
of the State of New York with a principal place of business in
Ridgefield Park, New Jersey.
Complainant identifies Respondent Orient Overseas Container Line
Limited as a company existing under the laws of Hong Kong with its
principal place of business in Wanchai, Hong Kong whose agent in the
United States is OOCL (USA) Inc. with its principal place of business
in South Jordan, Utah.
Complainant identifies Respondent OOCL (Europe) Limited as a
company existing under the laws of United Kingdom with its principal
place of business in Levington, Suffolk, United Kingdom whose agent in
the United States is OOCL (USA) Inc. with its principal place of
business in South Jordan, Utah.
Complainant alleges that Respondents violated 46 U.S.C. 41102(c)
and (d), and 41104(a)(3), (10), (14), and (15); and 46 CFR 545.4 and
545.5. Complainant alleges these violations arose from a failure to
perform and a delay in performance of inland transportation obligations
on ``store door'' shipments, and other acts and omissions of the
Respondents, that resulted in damages, such as unreasonable costs,
demurrage and detention charges, and delay.
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/24-17/">https://www2.fmc.gov/readingroom/proceeding/24-17/</a>. This proceeding has been assigned to the Office of
Administrative Law Judges. The initial decision of the presiding judge
shall be issued by March 28, 2025, and the final decision of the
Commission shall be issued by October 14, 2025.
David Eng,
Secretary.
