The following are digests and case links to Circuit Court Admiralty
Cases that have as an issue marine insurance:
Fernandez v. Haynie
Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals
March 25, 2002
Marine Insurance: Since the assured owner did not notify the
underwriter before the vessel' s captain was replaced, thus
breaching the hull policy's "Captain Warranty" (which provided
that the policy would be suspended when the vessel's captain
was replaced unless the underwriter had approved the new
captain in advance), the owner's claim under the policy for the
total loss of the fishing vessel due to sinking was properly denied.
