Matter of Davidson v. Pansy Waist Company

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

While it may be that at the time the claimant sustained his injuries he was making himself ready to perform his regular daily work as a salesman, such preparation cannot be said to be part of his employ *585 ment and it does not appear that he might not have prepared himself in exactly the same way if engaged in any other employment or vocation. The injury did not arise out of and in the course of his employment.

Orders reversed and claim dismissed, with costs against State Industrial Board.

His cock, Ch. J., Cardozo, Pound, McLaughlin, Crane, Andrews and Lehman, JJ., concur.

Orders reversed, etc.
