Menzies v. Fisher
Supreme Court of Connecticut
Decided July 18, 1973PublishedCited by 43 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtShapiro, J.

The appeal of the plaintiff-widow, Euphemia Menzies, challenges the denial of an award of attorney’s fees and the denial of a motion which sought to preclude the defendants from asserting a defense.

Menzies was one which arose out of and in the course of his employment.
