The timing is no mystery to anyone who has been following our industry, and I do not think it is too controversial to suggest that what we are seeing now are the continuing effects]]></description>

A shipowner bankruptcy raises several questions for charterers&amp;mdash;the answers to which may be contrary to their expectations under the law governing the charter.]]></description>

If the objecting party can establish that it has standing, it may be heard on the disputed matter. Consistent with Article III standing under the Constitution, in bankruptcy cases, the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has traditionally required that a party demonstrate some injury-in-fact, i.e.&amp;mdash;some &amp;quot;specific, &amp;#39;identifiable trifle&amp;#39; of injury,&amp;quot; or personal stake in the outcome of the litigation.&amp;quot; In a recent en banc decision, the 3rd Circuit revisited the standing doctrine in the bankruptcy context in In re Global Industrial Technologies Inc.]]></description>
