In the Matter of the Claim of Louis Katz Against A. Kadans & Company, Appellants. State Industrial…

Summary

The Court of Appeals affirmed the State Industrial Commission's award of workers' compensation to Louis Katz, holding that his injuries arose out of and in the course of his employment because his duties required him to travel on public streets, exposing him to street-related risks. The decision rests on the principle that employment that involves exposure to street perils brings the employee within the protection of the Workmen's Compensation Law.
