Whitton v. United Gas Public Service Co.

DREW, Judge.

This is a compensation suit in which the plaintiff is asking judgment for 65% of his weekly wages for a period of not more than 400 weeks, less the amount previously paid, for permanent disability brought about by an accident in which he was involved while in defendant’s employ and while acting within the scope and course of his employment.

Defendant admits practically all the allegations of plaintiff's petition and sets up as a defense that at the time compensation payments ceased, which was two years and two weeks after the date of the accident, plaintiff had fully recovered.

Wheth…
