Session 1: Recent Developments in Admiralty and Maritime Law at the National Level and in the Fifth and Eleventh Circuits - The nineteenth annual installment of the seminal paper surveys developments, identifies issues of genuine national importance, and discusses items of significant interest from the Fifth and Eleventh Circuits.
Session 2: Admiralty Practice in the Fifth Circuit - Judge Costa discusses trends in admiralty practice, including the perceived decline in federal maritime cases.
Session 3: David W. Robertson's Last Case - The last case that Professor Robertson argued before his death was Batterton v. Dutra Group in the Ninth Circuit. That court held that an injured seaman may seek punitive damages in a general maritime law action for unseaworthiness. Three weeks before Professor Robertson died, the Supreme Court granted cert to review that judgment. Professor Sturley discusses and analyzes the Supreme Court’s decision reversing the Ninth Circuit.
