Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 1, 1933
238 App. Div. 798 (N.Y. App. Div. 1933)

Opinion

February, 1933.


Judgment dismissing complaint reversed on the law and a new trial granted, costs to appellant to abide the event, on the ground that as to the proximate cause of decedent's death there was a question of fact which should have been submitted to the jury. Lazansky, P.J., Scudder and Davis, JJ., concur; Carswell, J., with whom Kapper, J., concurs, dissents on the ground that as to the cause of death there is no proof which excludes causes other than drowning. An autopsy would have readily revealed the true cause of death.
