FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
[DOCKET NO. 24-23]
Samsung Electronics America, Inc., Complainant v. HMM Co., Ltd.
f/k/a Hyundai Merchant Marine Co., Ltd., Respondent. Notice of Filing
of Complaint and Assignment
Served: June 5, 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 HMM Co., Ltd. f/k/a Hyundai
Merchant Marine Co., Ltd. (the ``Respondent''). Complainant states that
the Commission has subject matter jurisdiction over the complaint
pursuant to the Shipping Act of 1984, as amended, 46 U.S.C. 40101 et
seq. and personal jurisdiction over the Respondent as a common carrier
and vessel-operating ocean common carrier, 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 as a global ocean carrier with
its corporate office in Seoul, Korea, that does business in the United
States through HMM America Shipping Agency, Inc. with its principal
place of business in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey.
[[Page 49177]]
Complainant alleges that Respondent 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 assessment of detention
and demurrage charges on ``store door'' shipments for reasons not
within the control of Complainant, issuance of invoices for detention
and demurrage charges that did not contain the information required,
threats to refuse and refusals of available cargo space accommodation,
and other acts and omissions of the Respondents.
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/24-23/">https://www2.fmc.gov/readingroom/proceeding/24-23/</a>. This proceeding has been assigned to the Office of
Administrative Law Judges. The initial decision of the presiding judge
shall be issued by June 5, 2025, and the final decision of the
Commission shall be issued by December 19, 2025.
David Eng,
Secretary.
