Judge To Rule On Motion In $25,000 Railroad Case
Judge D A Cook will rule this afternoon on a motion by counsel for the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad Company to direct a verdict in the $25,000 damage suit brought by James G. Richter of Coldwater Michigan. The case, tried before a common pleas court jury for the third time, concerns whether a proper warning sign at the Route 18 crossing near Wellington was maintained. The collision occurred October 26, 1929, with a moving freight train while Richter was a passenger. The action has been in court since September 29, 1931, and has reached the Ohio Supreme Court twice and the appellate court three times.
