The appellant has moved for a reconsideration of our order of July 11, 1924, dismissiag the appeal in this case on the authority of Rodríguez v. Workmen’s Relief Commission, 31 P. R. R. 175.
The appellant contends that the case cited is not appli
This is a claim of the heirs of a deceased workman for an accident suffered by him in the course of his employment. This being so, the law applicable is section 9, which does not allow the Workmen’s Relief Commission an appeal from the decision of the district court. It is true that the petitioners did not follow strictly the procedure determined by section 9, but this was a question for the defendant who should have seen that the proceedings were conducted according to law.
For the foregoing reasons the motion must be denied.
Motion overruled.
