Lloyd Frederick Van Horn, and v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided January 6, 1971 · Chambers, Jertberg, Merrill, Per Curiam
437 F.2d 94 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Lloyd Frederick Van Horn, and v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

The judgment is affirmed.

It would appear that the only reported Ohio authority, Brown v. Columbus, 27 Ohio Law Abst. 677, holds that where a wife and children survive a decedent, a mother and father do not qualify as next of kin under a wrongful death statute. On that ground, not used by the trial court, we affirm.
