Isaac Slotnick, Respondent, v. New York Butchers Dressed Meat Company, Appellant.

Headnote

Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, entered in the New York county clerk’s office on the 15th day of March, 1915, upon a verdict, and also from an order entered on the 22d day of March, 1915, denying a motion for a new trial.

The evidence fails to show that the defendant was guilty of negligence, or that the accident happened because of any negligence or improper conduct of the foreman or superintendent. The judgment and order appealed from are, therefore, reversed, the finding that the defendant was guilty of negligence reversed and the complaint dismissed,
