Barratry (admiralty law)
:''For other uses, including other legal terms, see Barratry''
In admiralty law, barratry is an act of gross misconduct committed by a master or crew of a vessel which damages the vessel or its cargo. These activities may include desertion, illegal scuttling, theft of the ship or cargo, and committing any actions which may not be in the shipowner's best interests by the master or crew.
==Description==
Barratry is usually considered a crime against the ship's owner. Therefore, if the owner himself chooses to wreck the ship, no crime is committed, as the owner simply destroyed his own property - however, this can be considered a crime against any other owners. Also, harm to the crew can qualify as barratry regardless of who damaged the vessel.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Williams Kherker )〕 Throughout the 19th century, courts in the United States struggled with defining and understanding the law. Courts have concluded that negligence is not enough to qualify as barratry, but that it instead requires an intentional act and an intent to defraud.〔 Similarly, deviating from the assigned course is also not by itself barratry.〔
