Hershey Chocolate Corporation v. Mars

United States Court of Appeals, Third Circuit
Jan 29, 1960
273 F.2d 617 (3d Cir. 1960)

Opinion

No. 12972.

Argued January 7, 1960.

Decided January 29, 1960.

Appeal from United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania; Thomas C. Egan, J.

Harrison G. Kildare, Philadelphia, Pa. (Rawle Henderson, Thomas F. Mount, Philadelphia, Pa., on the brief), for appellants.

Mark D. Alspach, Philadelphia, Pa. (Krusen, Evans Shaw, Springer H. Moore, Jr., Philadelphia, Pa., on the brief), for appellees.

Before McLAUGHLIN, KALODNER and STALEY, Circuit Judges.


The sole question before us is whether Judge Egan in the district court properly decided that the appellees were not responsible for spoilage of the part of the cargo involved. We think he did. There is substantial testimony in the record fully justifying that decision.

The findings and conclusions of the district court on this phase of the suit, 172 F. Supp. 321, will be affirmed and the case remanded to the district court for the purpose of entering judgment thereon in favor of the defendants.
