CMA CGM has challenged Samsung Electronics America's $186 million claim by asking the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) to dismiss it, arguing that FMC adjudication violates the Seventh Amendment and that the claim is a breach of contract matter for federal courts.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
You handling US shipping disputes need to prepare for narrower FMC power as courts may reclaim contract claims formerly settled by the agency. This shift could open new legal routes but also delay resolutions you depend on.
