PEARL BAUMAN v. STATE OF ILLINOIS.

Headnotes

  1. NON-LIABILITY OF STATE-Morrissey v. State and Farmer v. State

PEARL BAUMAN

v.

STATE OF ILLINOIS.

Opinion filed November 19, 1914.

NON-LIABILITY OF STATE-Morrissey v. State and Farmer v. State ante followed. This case is controlled by the decisions of the Court in the cases of Morrissey v. State, supra, and Farmer v. State, supra.

Chipperfield & Chipperfield, Browne & Wiley, Duncan, Doyle & O'Conor, Howard H. Bayne, George P. Hills, Gleim & Colwell, for Claimant.

P. J. Lucey, Attorney General, and Arthur R. Roy, Assistant Attorney General, (Stead, Woodward & Hibbs, of Counsel), for State.

This is one of the so-called Utica bridge cases, and its decision is controlled by the decisions of the Morrissey and Farmer cases.

The attending physician testified that there was a laceration of the scalp with no other injury. Claimant complains of headaches, and says she cannot do heavy work.

It is the judgment of the Court, that the claim be denied, without prejudice to the right of claimant to present her claim to the legislature, and with the statement, that if it were within our power, we would award to claimant the sum of one hundred dollars.
