United States Second Circuit
American Petroleum and Transport v. City of New York, 12-4505
Judgment dismissing a complaint by plaintiff vessel owner alleging economic losses for a maritime tort is affirmed, where, although the rule barring damages for economic loss in the absence of an owner’s property damage has been overextended, the rule has been so consistently applied in admiralty that it should continue to be applied unless and until altered by Congress or the Supreme Court.
