Harter Act

Legislation in the United States that removes the legal liability of the owner of a shipping vessel for losses resulting from errors in navigation if the owner has exercised due diligence. However, the Act specifically makes the owner liable for losses resulting from negligence in the loading, unloading or storage of goods being transported. The Harter Act has been replaced partially by the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act of 1936.
