Stolt Kestrel BV v Sener Petrol Denizcilik Ticaret AS; CDE S.A. v Sure Wind Marine Ltd [2015] EWCA Civ 1035, [2015] All ER (D) 146 (Oct)

In two cases concerning collision actions in the Admiralty court, the claimant ship owners had been refused an extension of time for issuing their actions in personam. The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal in the first case and refused permission to appeal in the second. The claims had been time-barred and, in the case of the appeal, the relevant proceedings to which the time limit had applied had been the in personam action and not the earlier, within time, in rem action.
