STB Extends Procedural Schedule for Sanimax V. UP (UPDATED 12/18)
Written by Marybeth Luczak, Executive Editor
The Surface Transportation Board (STB) on Nov. 2 denied Union Pacific’s (UP) motion to dismiss Sanimax USA LLC’s (Sanimax) service case against it and set a procedural schedule for the submission of damages evidence. UP and Sanimax on Dec. 14 asked the STB to postpone the damages arguments and evidence briefing, as they have agreed “to conduct negotiations that could potentially resolve the dispute.”
