Owners of Cargo On K H Enterprise -v- Owners of Pioneer Container Times, 29 March 1994; [1994] 2 AC 324
29 Mar 1994 PC Lord Goff	Transport, Commonwealth, Contract, Agency	Casemap 1 Citers
	Owners who were claiming under a bailment must accept the terms of a sub-bailment to which it had agreed. This result is both principled and just. A sub-bailee can only be said for these purposes to have voluntarily taken into his possession the goods of another if he has sufficient notice that a person other than a bailee is interested in the goods so that it can properly be said that (in addition to his duties to the bailee) he has, by taking the goods into his custody, assumed towards that other person the responsibility for the goods which is characteristic of a bailee. This they believe to be the underlying principle.
