Woman appeals ruling in husband’s death case in 1926
Rose Debinski of Stamford challenged Judge Isaac Wolfe in the Supreme Court of Errors after Wolfe set aside a jury verdict awarding her $2500 for her husband Adam Debinski’s death in Greenwich. The case, tried before Judge Tsaao Wolfe and a jury, found the decedent aged 51 in good health earning $35 to $40 weekly, but the judge set aside the verdict citing sympathy and possible misdirection by the jury for drawing an inference that Debinski walked into Young’s car. The appeal argues the judge erred in overturning the jury award.
