Verdict Of 7500 Dollars Against West Bend Pastor

Helfer sought $15,000 while Dubberstein countered with $25,000, a counter claim the judge ruled could not go to the jury. The automobile collision near Dubuque on August 5, 1929, involved Donald Slaven and Dobberstein, who was asleep in the truck cab. Slaven testified the Chicago car approached on the wrong side amid a fierce wind. The pastor suffered the loss of sight in one eye and extended injuries, with speculation of future damages in a separate case.
