Robert Bibb v. Central Gulf Steamship Corp.
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided February 11, 1966 · Haynsworth, Sobeloff, Bell
356 F.2d 919 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Robert Bibb v. Central Gulf Steamship Corp.

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This appeal presents an issue of fact in an admiralty case — whether a seaman was, as he claims, improperly discharged by the master, or failed to return to the ship before sailing time, as the master insisted at the trial. The District Judge accepted the master’s version, and we are unable to say that he was clearly erroneous.

Affirmed.
