Iowa Supreme Court Allows Wife to Claim Damages in Saloon Case
The Iowa supreme court ruled that a wife may sue for damages in a civil action brought against a saloonkeeper for selling liquor to her husband who becomes a habitual drunkard. The decision outlines the basis for recovering damages in such cases and clarifies responsibility of saloon owners in contributing to a husband's intemperance.
Court Clarifies Damages in Habitual Intoxication Case
The court rules that habitual intoxication does not continue unless further liquor sales contribute, and if the plaintiff’s condition was caused by such intoxication, damages may be awarded. Bodily injury caused by a drunken husband may be considered in assessing damages.
