Knoxville Knitting Mills Co. v. Galyon
Tennessee Supreme Court
FROM KNOX. Error to the Circuit Court of Knox County. — Hon. Yon A. HuffAKBii, Judge.
1Opinion of the CourtJustice McKinney
• The undisputed facts show that the defendant in error, while in the employ of the plaintiff in error, lost his left hand; that nineteen years prior thereto, and while not in the employ of the plaintiff in error, the defendant in error had a part of three fingers on his left hand severed. He seeks in this case to recover for the loss of his left hand.
The plaintiff in error contends that the value of the three fingers, previously lost, should be deducted.
Thé trial court declined to make any deduction, and in such refusal he was correct.
