U.S. sues FedEx for alleged cargo container violations - Business First
The federal government is suing FedEx Corp. for alleged violations of Federal Aviation Administration regulations in 2008 and is seeking $1.55 million in civil penalties.
The suit arose from Memphis-based FedEx’s use of battery-powered refrigerated cargo containers.
The government claims that on March 20, 2008, the FAA notified FedEx it was using the containers in violation of published FAA standards and without approved maintenance and operation procedures.
