General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.
Dennis v. Denver & Rio Grand Western R. Co., 375 U.S. 208 (1963)
Dennis v. Denver & Rio Grand Western Railroad Co. No. 25 Argued November 19, 1963 Decided December 9, 1963 375 U.S. 208
CERTIORARI TO THE SUPREME COURT OF UTAH
Syllabus
In this case arising under the Federal Employers’ Liability Act, in which a jury awarded petitioner a verdict for damages for the loss of two fingers by frostbite after he had been required by his foreman to work outdoors in very cold weather, the evidence was sufficient to support the jury’s conclusion that respondent railroad’s negligence contributed to the injury, and the State Supreme Court erred in vacating the jury’s verdict and ordering entry of judgment for respondent. Pp. 208-210.
13 Utah 2d 249, 372 P. 2d 3, reversed and remanded.
