Description

Rehearing denied March 22, 1955. The plaintiff, Franklin L. Dowler, filed suit in the circuit court of Edgar County under the provisions of the Federal Employers'
Liability Act to recover damages for personal injuries allegedly sustained by him in the course of his employment by defendant,
The New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad Company. A jury trial resulted in a verdict for plaintiff in the sum of $8000.
The trial court, after denying motions for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, and for a new trial, entered judgment for
plaintiff on the verdict. Upon appeal, the Appellate Court for the Third District reversed this judgment for the reason that,
in its opinion, the plaintiff had failed to prove that his injuries were proximately caused by the negligence of the defendant,
and, thus, that the verdict was not supported by the evidence. (Dowler v. New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad Co. 2 Ill.
App.2d 1, 118 N.E.2d 608.) We have granted leave to appeal to review the judgment of the Appellate Court.
