Amodio's Case

Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
May 20, 1919
Reporters:
By the Court.

This case comes before us by appeal from a decree ‍​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​‍of the Superior Court affirming a decision of the Industrial Accident Board, which in turn adopted and confirmed the finding of the ‍​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​‍single member. The record presents no question of law whatever. Whether the employee was entitled to a finding in his favor was wholly ‍​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​‍a matter of fact. On a matter of fact the conclusion of the Industrial Accident Board is final and cannot be reversed ‍​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​‍unless quite unsupported by evidence. There is no ground for disturbing their finding in the case at bar, which is covered in ‍​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​‍every particular by Pass’s Case, 232 Mass. 515, and the decisions there collected.

Decree affirmed.
