The SS United States Conservancy has filed a federal court motion against landlord Penn Warehousing, alleging interference with the ship's sale to Florida's Okaloosa County. The conservancy claims Penn Warehousing demanded $3 million for the vessel's release from Pier 82, aiming to force a default and seize the ship. A hearing is set to address the conservancy's request for an eviction deadline extension amid ongoing legal disputes since 1996 over docking fees.
