NYPE — SUBCHARTER — SUBPOENAS — REQUEST FOR DOCUMENTS — CONSOLIDATION OF DISPUTES — Partial Owner Award

The Vessel suffered severe damage allegedly caused by stevedore negligence, and Owners commenced arbitration to recover damages. Charterers contended that they had no first-hand knowledge of the incident, as the Vessel was under sub-charter at the time. Charterers subsequently requested arbitration against their sub-charterer and requested that the Panel consolidate all parties into one proceeding.
