Ankerbrand v. Philippi
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided January 15, 1925
212 A.D. 842
Ankerbrand v. Philippi

Opinion of the Court

Award reversed and claim dismissed, with costs against the State Industrial Board, on the ground that the claimants have not sustained the burden of proof that the fall aggravated the pre-existing condition of angina pectoris as found by the Board, it being just as probable that the fall was caused by the disease and that death resulted independently of the fall. All concur.
