Landmark UAE Ruling Empowers Cargo Interests in Multimodal Carriage Contracts
The Dubai court ruled on the 16th of May 2024 in the commercial appeals 106/2023 and 111/2023 that due to the recklessness of both multimodal contractual carrier and actual sea carrier and their awareness of the likely damage, they forfeited their right to limit liability. The case progressed through all stages of the Dubai courts, ultimately affirming the initial judgment. This ruling found both carriers jointly liable, the multimodal a contractual carrier under contract and the actual sea carrier for tort. Consequently, they were compelled to compensate our client for the complete value of the goods, multimodal carriage fees, economic losses, legal fees, and the full attorney fees as agreed upon with us.
