1Opinion of the Court

ORDER AND REASONS

FELDMAN, District Judge.

Before the Court is the motion of defendant Tidewater Marine, Inc. for summary judgment. Tidewater seeks a dismissal of plaintiffs complaint, as supplemented and amended, and dismissal of the cross-claim of the United States. Because plaintiff has already dismissed his complaint as to Tidewater, only the motion for dismissal of the cross-claim of the United States remains. For the reasons that follow, the motion is DENIED.

This motion targets some persistent, and as yet unresolved issues in this circuit.
