TRAIL MARINE, LLC v. TEXAS PETROLEUM INVESTMENT COMPANY
MAGISTRATE JUDGE CAROL B. WHITEHURST
JUDGMENT
DAVID C. JOSEPH UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This matter was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Carol B. Whitehurst for report and recommendation. After an independent review of the record and after consideration of the objection filed [Doc. 14], this Court concludes that the Magistrate Judge's REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (“R&R”) [Doc. 13] is correct and adopts the findings and conclusions therein as its own.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, consistent with the R&R, Defendant, Texas Petroleum Investment Company's MOTION TO DISMISS [Doc. 7] is GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART. The Motion is granted insofar as it seeks to dismiss Trail Marine's claims for charter hire after the vessel's total loss. The motion is denied in all other respects.
