matter jurisdiction over the complaint pursuant to 46 U.S.C. 41301 and

directly to the Commission's Office of Administrative Law Judges on 
December 10, 2025, and served by Complainant on Respondent that same 
day. The Office of the Secretary was not included as an email 
recipient on the amended complaint. Pursuant to 46 CFR 502.2(c) and

intermediary organized and operating under the laws of Vietnam with its 
principal place of business located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
    Complainant identifies Respondent as a limited liability company 
that engages in the business of providing ocean transportation and 
logistics services, organized and operating under the laws of the state

Virginia.
    Complainant alleges that Respondent violated 46 U.S.C. 40901, 
40902, and 41102(a), (b), and (c). Complainant alleges these violations 
arose from Respondent's operating as a non-vessel-operating common

carriers for the shipping of 558 containers contracted by Complainant, 
repeated misappropriation of funds, and other acts or omission by 
Respondent.

proceeding, an answer to the amended complaint was to be filed with the 
Commission within 25 days after the date of service of the amended
