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.

McBride v. Toledo Terminal Railroad Co. No. 972 Decided June 24, 1957 354 U.S. 517
ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE
SUPREME COURT OF OHIO
Syllabus
In an action under the Federal Employers’ Liability Act in an Ohio state court against respondent railroad, a jury awarded damages to petitioner for injuries sustained when his foot slipped off a ladder on the side of a boxcar. The trial judge entered judgment for the railroad, notwithstanding the verdict, on the ground that the evidence was not sufficient to support the verdict. A court of appeals reversed. The State Supreme Court reversed the judgment of the court of appeals and affirmed that of the trial court. On a petition to this Court for certiorari, held: certiorari is granted; the judgment of the State Supreme Court is reversed, and the cause is remanded.
166 Ohio St. 129, 140 N.E.2d 319, reversed and remanded.
