1Opinion of the Court
JERRE S. WILLIAMS, Circuit Judge:
To insure payment for its carriage of crude oil from Scotland to Puerto Rico, Wilomi, Inc. arrested the oil subsequent to its delivery. Arochem Corp., appellant, which had purchased the oil, claimed the arrest was wrongful because Wilomi’s lien was no longer valid. Arochem brought suit seeking damages for the allegedly wrongful arrest. Holding that the arrest was not wrongful because a valid lien existed, the district court granted summary judgment for Wilomi.
