Notice is given that a complaint filed by Rose International, Inc.
(``Complainant'') against Overseas Moving Network International

Cartwright International Van Lines, Inc., Crown Overseas Movers, Inc.,
Graebel Movers International, Inc., Movers International, Inc., Ocean-
Air International, Inc., Sentry Household Shipping, Inc. and Victory
Van Corporation (collectively designated ``Respondents'') was served
February 29, 1996. Complainant alleges that Respondents have violated,
and continue to violate, sections 10(a)(1), (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(3),
(b)(4), (b)(6), (b)(10), (b)(11), (b)(12) and (d)(1) of the Shipping
Act of 1984, 46 U.S.C. app. Secs. 1709(a)(1), (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(3),

with their activity and practices surrounding service contracts between
OMNI and the Trans-Atlantic Conference Agreement, and its predecessor,
the Trans-Atlantic Agreement.
This proceeding has been assigned to the office of Administrative
Law Judges. Hearing in this matter, if any is held, shall commence
within the time limitations prescribed in 46 CFR 502.61, and only after
consideration has been given by the parties and the presiding officer
to the use of alternative forms of dispute resolution. The hearing
shall include oral testimony and cross-examination in the discretion of
the presiding officer only upon proper showing that there are genuine
issues of material fact that cannot be resolved on the basis of sworn
statements, affidavits, depositions, or other documents or that the
nature of the matter in issue is such that an oral hearing and cross-
examination are necessary for the development of an adequate record.
Pursuant to the further terms of 46 CFR 502.61, the initial decision of
the presiding officer in this proceeding shall be issued by February
28, 1997, and the final decision of the Commission shall be issued by
June 30, 1997.
Joseph C. Polking,
Secretary.
