Sec. 14913. Conclusiveness of rates in certain prosecutions

    When a carrier publishes or files a particular rate under section 
13702 or participates in such a rate, the published or filed rate is 
conclusive proof against that carrier, its officers, and agents that it 
is the legal rate for that transportation or service in a proceeding 
begun under section 14902 or 14903. A departure, or offer to depart, 
from that published or filed rate is a violation of those sections.
