Dean v. Johnson

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Mar 1, 1926
216 App. Div. 773 (N.Y. App. Div. 1926)

Opinion

March, 1926.

Appeal from State Industrial Board.


The record indicates that the claimant, under his contract, might have procured the work to be done by others than himself, and did in fact employ others to this end. As he was not required to provide his own personal services to cut the timber we think he was an independent contractor. All concur. Award reversed and claim dismissed, with costs against the State Industrial Board.
