PER CURIAM: In this suit for injury to a seaman, the district court quite correctly submitted special interrogatories to the jury to facilitate separate determination of two theories of liability, negligence and unseaworthiness. They were put in the form of affirmative statements, and read as follows: We, the Jury, find for the plaintiff, Claude

Bridgewater, J. Claude Allen Price, Jr. appeals multiple convictions, claiming that: (1) firing a gun into a car cannot be a substantial step toward commission of murder; (2) four convictions for attempted murder of two victims should not be served consecutively; (3) the firearm enhance*849ments should run concurrently; (4) the jury instructions were erroneous; and (5) he

This appeal involves a claim, based on an open account, for insurance premiums earned after cancellation of an excess liability umbrella policy. After a hearing, in which conflicting testimony was presented, the trial judge entered a judgment in favor of the plaintiff, McGriff, Seibels Williams, Inc., and against the defendant, Steiner Marine, Inc., in the amount of $11,570.00. We affirm. This case was heard by the trial court without a jury. Where the trial court has heard or

The appellant was duly convicted of the offense of murder in the first degree, and has appealed from the judgment of conviction on the record without a bill of exceptions. The record has been carefully examined, and it is in all things regular and free from error. Therefore a judgment will be entered here affirming the judgment of conviction and sentence of the circuit court. The judgment of conviction having been suspended pending his appeal, and the date heretofore fixed by th

This is a suit in equity by which plaintiffs are jointly pursuing a trust fund in the hands of defendant executor. The parties having to do with the establishment of the trust and with the present controversy growing out of it are James E. Campbell of Madisonville, Kentucky; his sister, Sophronia Martin; her children, Kate Cunningham, J.W. Simons, and Edwin N. Harris; and the latter's widow, Kate Harris. The facts, as found by the court, or as they stand undisputed in the record

The suit is in damages for injury to a truck from collision with a locomotive or tender of defendant at a grade crossing of a public street in the city of Mobile. The decision on former appeal appears in Cunningham Hardware Co. v. L. N. R. R. Co.,209 Ala. 327, 96 So. 358. Count B lays the accident to the negligence of the watchman or flagman of defendant, one Reil, who was stationed at the crossing for the purpose o

This is an appeal from an indictment and conviction of assault with intent to ravish. Sentence was fixed by the trial court at twelve years' imprisonment. The appellant is represented by court appointed counsel both at trial and on appeal. At trial there was no motion to exclude the evidence presented by the state, no motion for a directed verdict or request for an affirmative charge, and no exception to the oral charge of the court. The motion for new trial did not challenge t

Argued November 12, 1941. This case is very similar in its facts to Gallagher v.Unemployment Compensation Board of Review, 148 Pa. Super. 228, 24 A.2d 627. The appellant, Henry A. Thomas, on August 18, 1938, applied for a position as assistant accountant under the Civil Service provided for in the Unemployment Compensation Law (Act of December 5, 1936, P.L. 1937, p. 2897). In his application he sta

Argued March 12, 1941. The Unemployment Compensation Law (Act of December 5, 1936, P.L. of 1937, p. 2897) provides, inter alia, in section 510, relating to appeals to this court from the decisions of the board, "In any appeal to the Superior Court the findings of the board or referee, as the case may be, as to the facts, if supported by the evidence and in the absence of fraud, shall be conclusive, and in such cases the jurisdiction of the court shall be confined to questions of law."

The suit is for damages to a truck caused by collision with defendant's engine at a street crossing. Count 4 predicates liability on facts tending to show that defendant's servant so negligently operated the engine in question as to collide with the truck of plaintiff at the time and place indicated. In counts A and B liability is sought to be predicated upon the facts that defendant maintained a flagman at the crossing and at the time the accident occurred; that said flagman signaled
