Larsen v. MacDonald

Connecticut Superior Court

Decided May 24, 1937No. File #45462PublishedCited by 6 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtCornell, J.

Plaintiff asks to be awarded damages for certain injuries allegedly sustained by her as the result of a dog-bite which she received while employed at defendant, Pearsall’s restaurant and rooming house on July 13, 1933. That she was so bitten and injured is a hardly contestable fact.

The action is brought upon the statute, Gen. Stat. Cum. Supp., 1935, Section 1380c, which among other provisions, places the liability for damages to property or injury to person done by a dog upon “the owner or keeper of such dog”. Lanna vs. Konen, et al., 119 Cann. 646; McCarthy vs Daunis, 117 Conn. 307.
