(Aviation accident lawyer) Owner-Operator Indep. Drivers Ass’n v. United Van Lines, LLC

More info…
(U.S. 8th Cir., Civil Procedure, Class Actions, Commercial Law, Insurance Law, Transportation) In a suit against a federally registered motor carrier alleging violations of the Secretary of Transportation’s Truth-in-Leasing regulations, dismissal is affirmed in part and reversed in part where: 1) the district court erred in dismissing certain claims since damage actions under 49 U.S.C. section 14704(a)(2) are subject to the general four-year statute of limitations found in 28 U.S.C. section 1658 for civil actions arising under federal statutes rather than the two-year statute of limitations found in 49 U.S.C. section 14705(c); and 2) the district court correctly dismissed a claim after concluding that an applicable regulation permits registered motor carriers to charge back the costs of PL/PD insurance.
