KSB Shipping & Logistics LLC v. Direct Container Line aka 
Vanguard Logistics; Notice of Filing of Complaint and Assignment

    Notice is given that a complaint has been filed with the Federal 
Maritime Commission (Commission) by KSB Shipping & Logistics LLC, 
hereinafter ``Complainant,'' against Direct Container Line aka Vanguard 
Logistics, hereinafter ``Respondent.'' Complainant states that it is a 
non-vessel-operating common carrier (NVOCC) and freight forwarder 
licensed by the Commission and a New Jersey corporation. Complainant 
alleges that Respondent is an NVOCC licensed by the Commission.
    Complainant alleges that Respondent has violated section 10(d)(1) 
of the Shipping Act, 46 U.S.C. 41102(c), in connection with a shipment 
made as agents for shippers Risona Incorporated and Bracha Export Corp 
DBA Continental, and consolidator R&A International Logistics 
Incorporated. Complainant alleges that ``Cargo Partner Austria who were 
the agents of Vanguard Logistics in Europe released the delivery order 
to the consignees broker Cargo Clearing GMBH Austria without the latter 
presenting the Original Bill of lading and also despite the fact that 
the shipment was on hold status and despite the fact that Vanguard 
Logistics representative had given the assurance in writing to us that 
the shipment will be on hold.'' Complainant seeks reparations of 
$191,110 plus interest and attorney's fees.
