London Court Verdict Sets New Liability Rule for Fruit Shipping
A London Court of Appeals ruling in the Hobson's Bay case limits shipowners protection under inherent vice and requires proof of its extent. The decision holds that damage to fruit delivered sound to the ship and discharged damaged may render the shipowner liable for all or part of the loss unless exempt under the act. The ruling could revolutionize British and international fruit trade by shifting risk to steamship lines and encouraging better handling and insurance of overseas shipments.
