Carrier Liability for Goods Damage During Transit
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA dispute arose concerning the liability of a transport company for damages to goods during transit, where the carrier claimed to be released from liability by adherence to the applicable transport regulations limiting the carrier's obligation to that of a mere custodian upon arrival, while the claimant argued that the damage occurred due to the carrier's fault. The court rejected the appeal, affirming that the carrier, having failed to prove that the loss or damage was attributable to an exception listed in the transport regulations, remained responsible for the goods until their delivery, thereby upholding the lower court's decision finding the carrier liable.
