Queen Mary suit targets subleased space charges
A class action filed in Los Angeles targets Specialty Queen Mary and its sublessees aboard the Queen Mary ship. Merchants claim excessive square footage charges caused losses, with 14 named plaintiffs and 68 others seeking about 17 million dollars plus 875000 in compensatory damages. The suit accuses the ship’s management of abrasive, adversarial practices and urges the city to place the vessel under unified management, though merchants warn it could take years to become profitable.
