New York Court of Appeals

In the Matter of Roger K. Humphrey, Respondent, Against State Insurance Fund, Appellant, Respondents

January 13, 1949298 N.Y. 327

Summary

The Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division, holding that the State Insurance Fund’s special regulation for handling claims by its own employees was authorized by the Workmen’s Compensation Law and that the fund’s administrative determination of Humphrey’s misconduct was supported by substantial evidence, so the fund’s finding was affirmed.
