Darlington v. National Bulk Carriers, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
FRANK, Circuit Judge.
The cases make it clear that the safety of ships at sea might be seriously endangered were the rule in accordance with the judge’s charge and not as stated in the requested charge. We need not consider whether, in extraordinary circumstances, the well-settled rule might perhaps be inapplicable if orders given were outrageously absurd, for here there were no such circumstances or orders.
Reversed and remanded.
