Sec. 901, et seq. (1982), was admissible as some evidence of negligence. In Provenza v. American Export Lines, Inc., 324 F.2d 660 (4th Cir.1963), cert.

  7. Lebrun v. Baker Hughes Inc et al

    MOTION to Dismiss for Failure to State a Claim Under Rule 12

    Filed April 19, 2017

    The plaintiff’s claim against BHI for unseaworthiness does not meet the standard of Twombly and Iqbal as it fails to state any plausible grounds upon which liability could attach to BHI. C. LHWCA20 Finally, the plaintiff makes an alternative claim for compensation as a longshoreman under the LHWCA (33 U.S.C. §901, et seq.), which requires, among other things, an employer-employee relationship between the defendant and the injured party.21 The plaintiff has not alleged any such relationship between himself and BHI.22 Without an employer-employee relationship, no liability for compensation under the LHWCA can possibly attach to BHI. Thus, there is no facial plausibility that the plaintiff is entitled to relief under this cause of action.
