Annotate this CaseDecided June 26, 1952
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania; Rabe Ferguson Marsh, Jr., Judge.
Before BIGGS, Chief Judge, and KALODNER and STALEY, Circuit Judges.
Bruce R. Martin, Pittsburgh, Pa. (Dalzell, Pringle, Bredin & Martin, Pittsburgh, Pa., on the brief), for appellant.
Sylvan Libson, Pittsburgh, Pa. (Harrison & Libson, Pittsburgh, Pa., on the brief), for appellee.
PER CURIAM.
An examination of the record discloses substantial evidence of negligence to sustain the jury's verdict against the defendant. Blair v. Baltimore & Ohio R. Co., 323 U.S. 600, 604, 65 S. Ct. 545, 89 L. Ed. 490. Cf. Lukon v. Pennsylvania R. Co., 3 Cir., 131 F.2d 327, 328. The evidence also shows that the plaintiff's act was not the sole efficient cause of the injury. A careful examination of the record and review of the briefs and oral argument convince us that the court below committed no prejudicial error. Consequently the judgment will be affirmed.
