Troutman et al. v. Williams Furniture Corp.

1 Citing case

  1. Sylvan v. Sylvan Bros., Inc., et al

    82 S.E.2d 794 (S.C. 1954)   Cited 20 times
    Denying compensation because there was no causal connection between employment and injury

    Manifestly, there was no causal connection between the employment and the injury. The judgment will have to be reversed upon the authority of Gallman v. Springs Mills, 201 S.C. 257, 22 S.E.2d 715; Dicks v. Brooklyn Cooperage Co., 208 S.C. 139, 37 S.E.2d 286; Hinton v. North Georgia WarehouseCorp., 211 S.C. 370, 45 S.E.2d 591, from which the writer hereof dissented but of course is bound by the decision; McDonald v. E.I. DuPont De Nemours Co., 223 S.C. 217, 74 S.E.2d 918; and Troutman v. WilliamsFurniture Co., 224 S.C. 353, 79 S.E.2d 374. The Gallman case, supra [ 201 S.C. 257, 22 S.E.2d 716], is especially in point and, therefore, controlling; the injured employee there was en route to work, carrying his tools, when he slipped and fell on the employer-owned icy street.
