Hearing on Status of Compensation Case in Altenread Death
A Kansas hearing before Workmen's Compensation Assistant Commissioner Wint Smith examined whether Dobson & Robinson Construction Co. bears liability for the death of Howard L. Altenread, a man who worked as a contractor hauling sand and crushed rock for a highway project near Lawrence. Altenread, 32, died after his Ford dump truck overturned on Pleasant Grove hill on September 28, pinning him beneath as it rolled, following a collision with another truck. His widow, from La Cyne, Kansas, contends the firm is liable. the firm argues Altenread was an independent contractor, not an employee, so no compensation applies.
