Claim of Farber v. Harbor Shoes Co.

10 N.Y.2d 875 | NY | 1961

Order reversed and matter remitted to the Workmen’s Compensation Board for a new hearing. The hypothetical question addressed to the physician who testified for this claimant, and on which he based his opinion, included assumptions as to the events of February 1, 1957 which, in part, were not based on evidence and, in other respects, were based on uncorroborated hearsay testimony of claimant (Workmen’s Compensation Law, § 118). No opinion.

Concur: Chief Judge Desmond and Judges Dye, Fuld, Froessel, Van Voorhis, Burke and Foster.
