Johnson Seafood Products hired King Logistics, LLC, to transport a load of seafood from Maine to Nevada.When King's driver delivered the cargo, the customer rejected it because its temperature was higher than expected, making the seafood unsafe.King argued that the temperature in its refrigerated trailer was proper and that instead, Johnson had provided "hot" products for transportation.King provided appropriate temperature readings from the trailer during the time period in question to support its argument.Nonetheless, Johnson filed a lawsuit against King in a federal district court.
