879 OPINION/ORDER
We now conclude that the government's waiver of sovereign immunity reflected in the Suits in Admiralty Act is subject to an implied exception similar to the discretionary function exception contained within the Federal Tort Claims Act. I. The relevant facts are set out in detail in the panel's opinion. We will only briefly recount them here. The plaintiffs were riding two jet skis on the Ohio River in the vicinity of the Robert C. The plaintiffs were injured when they went over the gates and dropped approximately twenty five feet to the water below. There were several warning signs on the upstream side of the dam. Their evidence indicated that the signs were difficult to see from the river. Alleging that the government had a duty to warn about the dangers of the dam and that the signs in place were inadequate to satisfy this duty. Arguing that it was protected by an implied discretionary function exception to the SIAA's waiver of sovereign immunity. The government also moved for summary judgment on the merits of the plaintiffs' claims on the grounds that it had no duty to warn about the dam and that the warnings it provided were.

457 OPINION/ORDER
Circuit Judge: The sole issue on appeal is whether we should construe or extend the United States Supreme Court's decision in Moragne v. He was actually employed by Tidewater Temps but worked on behalf of Mid Atlantic Coastings (MidAtlantic). Which was used to load sand for sandblasting. The crane operator's negligence and Norfolk's use of an inadequate communication signaling system were the reasons for her son's death. The Court noted that at common law there was no civil action for an injury that resulted in death and that English maritime law also had no cause of action for wrongful death on the high seas. The Court concluded that because it is now established that in the courts of the United States no action at law can be maintained for [wrongful death] in the absence of a statute giving the right. We are forced to the conclusion that no such action will lie in the courts of the United States under the general maritime law. Which originally was an obscure and rarely used cause of action for which many state wrongful death statutes did not account.

Claimants are the widow and son of a deceased diver and dockbuilder. Which held that the decedent's employer was not required to pay benefits under the Longshore Harbor Workers Compensation Act. The employer has filed a protective cross appeal solely to preserve its right to have this court examine the employment status of the decedent in the event that we reverse the Board on the release and credit issues. We will affirm the order of the Board that the decedent was a harbor worker. We hold that only when these two sections are applied together do they provide a credit to the employer where the apportionment of funds between prior settled claims is unknown. We will affirm the order of the Board. We will affirm its determination that the notice provision of § 933(g)(2) was satisfied by virtue of the employer's participation in the tort settlement. We will reverse the order of the Board that the claimants are not entitled to any benefits under the LHWCA and remand this case for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

Christensen is a longshoreman who was injured while helping to retie a ship that had broken free from the dock. The injury was not a foreseeable result of appellees' acts. The ship was longer than the 1601 dock. Arrived at the Georgia Pacific dock and tied two mooring lines to the same Georgia Pacific cleat to which Asian Hawk was tied. Christensen was sitting in his truck on his dinner break when the ship broke away from the dock and started drifting into Coos Bay. Claiming that the ship was negligent when it tied to the same cleat as Asian Hawk. The court held that Southern 1 The federal question jurisdiction was based on the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (LHWCA).

Finding that Congress could not have foreseen these discrepancies. The Moragne Court found that a claim for wrongful death based upon the unseaworthiness of a vessel was viable because the unseaworthiness doctrine had been extended to longshoremen as the principal vehicle for recovery of injury or death while performing work on a vessel. To the extent of that reliance Moragne was superceded and reversed by the 1972 amendments to the act. The panel opinion's reliance on this portion of Moragne is misplaced. The legislative history of the 1972 amendments to the Act are particularly relevant to our decision in this case. It is clear from this history that Congress intended to
387 OPINION/ORDER
These consolidated interlocutory cross appeals before us pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b) (1993) present an interesting and important question of maritime law: whether state wrongful death and survival statutes are displaced by a federal maritime rule of decision concerning the remedies available for the death of a recreational boater occurring within state territorial waters. [fn1] which are explicitly excluded from the reach of the Death on the High Seas Act. The remedies at issue are loss of society. Was killed in a boating accident in the waters off Puerto Rico. Fashioned a federal common law rule applicable to cases involving the death of a non seaman in territorial waters under which future earnings and punitive damages are not recoverable but damages for loss of society or support are. Each party sought certification to appeal the portion of the court's ruling that was unfavorable. Our analysis of the Supreme Court's maritime wrongful death jurisprudence reveals that there is no federal substantive policy with which state wrongful death or survival statutes conflict here.

Carson Harbor argues there are genuine issues of material fact regarding whether it substantially complied with the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (National Contingency Plan). UNOCAL CORP. 511 was properly authenticated and that the district court abused its discretion in not considering late filed declarations. Facts BACKGROUND Carson Harbor is a limited partnership owned by James Goldstein and his corporation. Of which he is the sole shareholder and president. When the Property was converted into a mobile home park. Included within the Property boundaries are about seventeen acres of marshy wetlands. The tar like material was visible at the surface and covered an area about twenty feet by thirty feet in the wetlands. Was most concentrated near the tar like material. Carson Harbor asserts that the area is a federally protected wetlands.

Because the project was federally funded. T.A.O. was required under the Miller Act to post a payment bond to protect subcontractors and materialmen.(1) Co defendant Mid Continent Casualty Co. was the surety on the bond. The total subcontract price was $448. The subcontracted work was broken down into four line items: (1) concrete paving. T.A.O. was to make monthly progress payments to Towerridge for work satisfactorily completed. The appropriate percentage of each line item's scheduled value to which Towerridge was therefore entitled. T.A.O. was to pay Towerridge twenty percent of that line item's scheduled value.

The boat was stationary when the accident occurred rather than rocking back and forth in the wash of a passing boat. The defendant moved to dismiss the suit on the ground that it was not within the admiralty jurisdiction. There would be no argument that the plaintiff's claim was an admiralty claim. Since the boat was moored indefinitely. An accident occurring on landfill adjacent to navigable waters is not within the admiralty jurisdiction unless (as we'll see) the accident involved the boat's colliding with or otherwise damaging something on the land. The accident in our case had nothing to do with the fact that the casino was on a boat afloat on a navigable stream rather than sitting on dry land.

Fighting over these funds are. To whom they have been forfeited. Whether we should exercise our appellate jurisdiction when the appeal is from an order terminating one of two consolidated cases. We conclude that we should exercise our jurisdiction and we will reverse the District Court's award of judgment of forfeiture and remand for further proceedings. The government instituted the forfeiture action by filing a civil complaint for forfeiture in the same court.2 The forfeiture complaint alleged that the seized funds were involved in a drug money laundering conspiracy headed by a South American money exchanger. Glikas was arrested in April 1998 and convicted of conspiracy to commit money laundering in March 1999. The government claimed that the seized funds were subject to forfeiture under 18 U.S.C. §§ 981 and 984 for involvement in transactions that violated the federal money laundering statutes. Kesten was thus prosecuting a civil action in New York and defending a civil forfeiture action in New Jersey.

One of Fernandez's boats was the F/V Cap FERNANDEZ v. Also unknown to Fernandez was the fact that Haynie and two other individuals were actively involved in a venture to build their own marine insurance business. The loss of Fernandez's business would have dealt a significant blow to Haynie's efforts. The first attorney who handled Fernandez's case was unable to make contact with Liberty. Haynie argues that the district court improperly asserted admiralty jurisdiction over the case because the contract to procure marine insurance is not maritime. 4 FERNANDEZ v. The court finds that the contract is maritime in nature and the district court properly asserted admiralty jurisdiction over the case. 1043 (4th Cir. 1986) (stating that district court's decision to allow plaintiff to amend pleadings to conform to the evidence under Rule 15(b) is reviewed for abuse of discretion).
