Dewey v. Dewey Fuel Co.
Michigan Supreme Court
Certiorari to Industrial Accident Board. Henrietta E. Dewey presented her claim for compensation against the Dewey Fuel Company for the accidental death of her husband in defendant’s employ. From an order awarding compensation, defendant and the Southern Surety Company, insurer, bring certiorari.
1Opinion of the CourtBird, J.
Plaintiff claims that her husband, while in the employ of the Dewey Fuel Company, met his death under circumstances which entitle her to an award under the workmen’s compensation act. Liability is denied by defendants on the grounds:(1) That neither the injury nor death of Mr. Dewey was caused by an accident, arising out of or in the course of his employment.(2) That the injury and death were the result of intentional and wilful misconduct.(3) Because one of the arbitrators was not a disinterested party within the meaning of the rules of the commission.
