Description

This case presents two questions as to the liability of a stevedoring contractor to reimburse a shipowner for damages paid by the latter to one of the contractors longshoremen on account of injuries received by him in the course of his employment on shipboard. 1. The first question is whether the Longshoremens and Harbor Workers Compensation Act precludes a shipowner from asserting such a liability. 2. The second is whether the liability exists where a contractor, without entering into an express agreement of indemnity, contracts to perform a shipowners stevedoring operations and the longshoremans injuries are caused by the contractors unsafe stowage of the ships cargo. For the reasons hereafter stated, we answer the first question in the negative and the second in the affirmative.
