Morris Bart has a wall around the riverfront as we speak. He's blocking out Gordon and his team who are en route.

Fark Board - can you put Gordan on top of a tanker?

I think the tanker is the big truck. He needs to be on top of a riverboat.

He’d make it more elaborate and photoshop himself on the sinking Titanic.

I’m not sure either would take these maritime cases. To recover, you have to break the limitation of liability protecting the vessel.

It’s been a while, but I think in PI cases (not property damage) you have to show unseaworthiness at the inception of the voyage OR that the owners had privity of knowledge in the vessel negligence.

I doubt either firm would have the expertise to prove that.

Oh, and all the cases getting drawn into the limitation.

Someone will have to pay, but won’t be the River Pilots.

Is the liability limited to the value of the at cause vessel? Or is that just for property aspect?

Danny Becnel made his name when the Luling ferry sank after being hit.

I'm just glad it was a white boat so we can avoid dealing with Sharpton and Crump.

I think it is the value of the vessel at the end of the voyage.

So, you guys like to tell jokes and giggle and kid around, huh? Giggling like a bunch of young broads in a schoolyard. Well, let me tell a joke.


You folks act like it is all lawyers, but really it is the 95% that give the rest a bad name.

You would be shocked how many people call Bart with maritime cases and just other large cases in general. They usually farm out the maritime ones.

Busting limitation shouldn’t be hard in this situation.
