Claim of Kranowitz v. American Cotton Co.
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided September 15, 1927
221 A.D. 831
Claim of Kranowitz v. American Cotton Co.

Opinion of the Court

Award reversed and claim remitted, with costs against the State Industrial Board to abide the event, on the ground that there is no proof to support the findings that a bale of cotton fell on the claimant’s belly and produced an increase of intra-abdominal force, and that herniotomy was afterwards performed; and there was failure to show disability during the period of the award. Cochrane, P. J., Van Kirk, McCann, Davis and Whitmyer, JJ., concur.
