Forrester v. Ocean Marine Indem. Co.
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided December 17, 1993No. 92-3924UnpublishedCited by 46 opinions
1Per curiam
In this admiralty ease, Defendants Appellant Arco Oil & Gas Company (Arco) appeals the district court’s determination that Arco was liable for the injuries sustained by Plaintiff-Appellee Randy P. Forrester when he attempted to disembark from the M/V SEA HERCULEAN (the crewboat). Arco insists that it owed no duty of reasonable care to Forrester in any of its several statuses: time charterer, platform owner, dock owner. As we agree, we reverse the judgment of the district court and render judgment for Arco, dismissing Forrester’s action with prejudice.
