Limitation of Liability - Timely Filing of Petition - Pleading Limitation as a Defense: In a Personal Injury Suit against a Fishing Vessel Owner in Texas State Court, the Owner Pleaded Limitation as a Defense - More Than Six Months Later, the Owner Filed a Complaint for Limitation in a U.S. District Court, Which Dismissed It as Untimely - The Court of Appeals, Affirming, Stated That in Any Event, the Federal Court Had Exclusive Jurisdiction to Hear the Limitation Issue
