In this series of FD&D Guides, developed by James Mackay and Russel Harling of CJC
(Campbell Johnston Clark), we provide brief notes on issues to address and practical steps to take in a situation where this is non-payment or short-payment of hire.
- The first Guide looks at the question of off-hire and equitable set-off.
- The second Guide looks at the shipowner's remedy of withdrawal/suspension of performance when a wrongful deduction from hire or short-payment occurs.
- The third and final Guide looks at the shipowner's other remedies instead of or in addition to withdrawal/suspension of performance when a wrongful deduction from hire or short-payment occurs.
