https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=44563 A direction relieving an importer from future liability for detention or demurrage does not, by itself, create a right to refund of charges already recovered by a port authority. The Supreme Court orders relied on here only directed release of the goods and related bond, and expressly did not grant refund of demurrage or detention charges; the clarification application was rejected, and refund was neither prayed for nor argued. Because the port authority that collected the charges was not a party and no express refund order existed, no enforceable direction for refund could be issued. The petition therefore failed. en-us Tue, 20 Aug 1996 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 28 Jun 2010 11:55:11 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=44563 A direction relieving an importer from future liability for detention or demurrage does not, by itself, create a right to refund of charges already recovered by a port authority.
