摘要：	One of the panelists at the recently concluded seminar of the Greater New Orleans Barge Association spoke on one of the two cases involving maritime law that the Supreme Court recently announced it would take up in its next judicial session. The other case was announced shortly after GNOBFA concluded. While both are significant for maritime law, one could also affect the operations of every federal agency. James Mercante-a partner at Rubin Fiorella Friedman & Mercante LLP and president of the Board of Commissioners of Pilots in the State of New York-spoke about the first case, announced April 20. Titled Great Lakes Insurance SE v. Raiders Retreat Realty Co. LLC, the case will address the issue of whether, under federal admiralty law, a choice-of-law clause in a maritime contract can be rendered unenforceable if enforcement is contrary to the "strong public policy" of the state whose law is displaced. This question is of obvious concern for maritime attorneys, since cases often turn on which venue they can be argued in-federal or state court.
