Abstract

1. ADMIRALTY

Payment of Wages to Discharged Seaman is not Limited to Direct Cash Payment if other Methods are more Appropriate

Rules for the Transfer of an Admiralty Suit to another Forum are the Same for in Rem as for In Personam Actions

Longshoremen Injured on Employer's Vessel have a Negligence Action against that Employer for Non-stevedore Caused Injuries

Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction and Availability of an Alternative Forum denies Foreign Seaman Access to Federal Courts

Longshoreman's Employer is not a Necessary or Indispensable Party to Longshoreman's Action against Shipowner for Negligence

Wrongful Death Remedy under Decisional Maritime Law includes Assessment for Loss of Society

Longshoreman's Allegation that Shipowner Failed to Provide a Safe Place to Work States a Legally Sufficient Claim

2. ALIEN'S RIGHTS

Conviction under a Foreign Law with no Knowledge Requirement does not Preclude Aliens from Permanent United States Residency

Alien Charged with being Deportable as Overstay Visitor not Entitled to Invoke Statutory Waiver of Deportation Provision of Section 241(f)

Previously admitted Aliens can Invoke Estoppel in Deportation Cases only when the Government's Actions constituted "Affirmative Misconduct"

Denial of Application for Alien Employment Certification because of Availability of American Applicants Must be Based on Credible, Reliable Information

3. ANTITRUST

Foreign Governments may not Sue as "Parens Patriae" in Anti-trust Damage Suits

4. AVIATION

No Private Remedy for Allegedly Inferior Ground Accommodations may be Implied from Federal Aviation Act

5. CHOICE OF LAW

Paraguayan Specific Codes are to be Consulted before General Codes in Determination of Applicable Law

6. EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY

Rebuttable Presumption Set by National Standard is Permissible in the European Economic Community

7. JURISDICTION

Contacts between Alabama and Agency of a Foreign Government Insufficient to Establish in Personam Jurisdiction under Alabama's Long-arm Statute
