ROSENBERG v. UNITED PARCEL SERVICE GENERAL SERVICES CO. - Leagle

On May 9, 2014, plaintiff contracted with UPS over the Internet to have UPS transport four packages containing Apple iPhone 5S cellular telephones from New York to Israel to be delivered to a recipient with an address in Kiriat Malachi, Israel. (Pacecho Dec'l ¶¶ 5, 6).

UPS transported the shipment to Israel without incident in May 2014. However, upon arrival at Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv, the shipment was placed under a hold by Israeli Customs. Israeli Customs would not clear and release the shipment until required shipping charges, customs duties, taxes, fees, and surcharges were paid. An attorney for plaintiff contacted UPS in late June 2014 regarding the delayed delivery. Plaintiff had not paid any of the required shipping charges, duties, taxes, or fees at that time.

After several email exchanges with various UPS agents, plaintiff made the required payments on August 18 and 19, 2014. Israeli Customs cleared and released the shipment on August 31, 2014. UPS delivered the shipment to the intended recipient on September 1, 2014.
