BASE SUITS ON COLD DEPOT IN VIRGINIA CASES
Justice Turner in Leesburg dismissed suits by Danny Wood and Roger Wood against the Washington and Old Dominion Railway seeking 6900 each for pneumonia allegedly caused by unheated depots. The rulings held the statute only requires heat for 69% minutes before departures, making the actions untenable. The cases cite a December 1514 incident and involve attorney T F Morrison for plaintiffs and Lambert Nicol for the railroad.
