The Crummer Company and R. E. Crummer & Company v. Jessie Ball Du Pont, Etc.
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
TUTTLE, Circuit Judge.
This case is here on appeal for the second time. This appeal attacks the judgment of the trial court based on a directed verdict finding that the statute of limitations had not been tolled by reason of any fraudulent concealment on the part of the defendants in a treble damage anti-trust suit.
The question presented is whether there was any evidence from which the jury could have found fraudulent concealment of the cause of action, for if there was then the trial court could not properly take that issue from the jury.
