Notice of Filing of Complaint and

Assignment

Notice is given that a complaint filed

by CTM International, Inc.

(‘‘Complainant’’) against Medtech

Enterprises, Inc. and Mr. Xin Liu

(‘‘Respondents’’) was served May 28,

1998. Complainant alleges that

Respondents violated section 10(a)(1) of

the Shipping Act of 1984, 46 U.S.C. app.

section 1709(a)(1), by issuing a bad

check or issuing a check upon which

payment was subsequently stopped in

order to induce release of cargo, and

thereafter failing to remit the ocean

freight and other charges due and

payable for two shipments of used

medical equipment from New York to

Xingang, China.

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 crossexamination 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 crossexamination 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 May 28, 1999, and the final
