Opinion
No. 9996.
Argued November 23, 1949.
Decided December 2, 1949.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania; Kennedy, Judge.
Philip Dorfman, Philadelphia, Pa., for appellant.
Robert Cox, Philadelphia, Pa. (Robert W. Bikle and Krusen, Evans Shaw, Philadelphia, Pa., on the brief), for appellee.
Before GOODRICH, McLAUGHLIN and KALODNER, Circuit Judges.
This is an action brought to recover for injuries to a seaman. He claimed liability based upon (1) negligence; (2) unseaworthiness; (3) the right to maintenance and cure. The case was tried to a jury which returned a verdict for the defendant. We think the case was properly submitted to that body and that its finding in favor of the defendant must stand.
The judgment will be affirmed.
