By JANE WARDELL The Associated Press Monday, March 6, 2006; 3:17 PM LONDON -- The controversial takeover of British shipping company P&O by Dubai's state-owned DP World received the green light Monday when Britain's Court of Appeal dismissed a Miami firm's objection to the deal. The Court of Appeal declined to hear an appeal from Miami-based Eller & Co., which had tried to have the deal barred on technical grounds, arguing that U.S. concerns about a United Arab Emirates company owning significant operations at six major U.S. seaports could harm its business. * * * Rev.
