WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to take a maritime law case involving a widow from Smith Island, Maryland.
The court said Monday it won’t consider the case of Jennifer Dize, whose husband William Dize spent two decades working as a boat captain for the Association of Maryland Pilots. William Dize sued his employer under the Jones Act in 2008, claiming a boat project left him with a fatal lung disease.
