FIRST BANK & TRUST v. KNACHEL

No. 92-2690 Summary Calendar.

999 F.2d 107 (1993)

FIRST BANK & TRUST, Plaintiff-Appellant, Cross-Appellee, v. Allen B. KNACHEL, et al., Intervenors-Plaintiffs, Appellees, Cross-Appellants, v. M/V FOUR POINT X, Defendant.

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

August 26, 1993.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

J. James Cooper, David H. Timmins and Sarah V. Kerrigan, Sewell & Riggs, Houston, TX, for plaintiff-appellant.

Arthur T. Kajander and J. Kevin Shaw, Sharp & Kajander, Houston, TX and Perry W. Neichoy, Wells, Peyton, Beard, Greenberg, Hunt & Crawford, L.L.P., Beaumont, TX, for intervenors-plaintiffs, appellees.

Before REYNALDO G. GARZA, DUHÉ and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.

REYNALDO G. GARZA, Circuit Judge:

The appellant, First Bank, appeals from the judgment granting the appellees, the crew, status as seamen on an "in navigation" vessel and therefore entitled to a preferred maritime lien for their wages. Upon review, we find no clear error in the court's finding of fact that the vessel was in navigation. We find that the crew was also entitled to pre-judgment interest. We therefore affirm in part, and remand in part.
