Admiralty Proceeding
Categories: Regulations
A legal matter being adjudicated by an admiralty court; these matters pertain to issues involving maritime vessels and/or activities occurring aboard vessels while in open waters.
If Judge Smails sued Al Czervik for crashing his yacht into the judge's dinghy, that would likely give rise to an admiralty proceeding. Your ongoing debate about whether there was enough room on that piece of wood for both Jack and Rose to share/survive is not an admiralty proceeding (but there absolutely was).
