Case Deals With Award
ing Of $4,000 Dana
ges To Nora Phelps In
Circuit Court

FlOrida'S supreme court has de-
MED the petition of Cleary Broth
ers' Construction Company against
Nora Phelps, in her suit against
the company in which she was
awarded $4,000 damages by a
jury in circuit court in Key West,
according to an Associated Press
dispatch The Citizen received
from Tallahassee today.
Inc company. several weeks
before, had asked that the verdict
be set aside on the ground that it
was excessive, but the motion was
denied. The company also com
planned, through its attorneys,
that the stenOgraphic notes had
been lost. but the court pointed
out that they were rot taken by
an official court reporter but by
d stenographer employed by the
company, and that, therefore, the
plaintiff could not be rightly
blamed for the loss of the notes.
In the petition for re-hearing,
the court said in part:
eve reach by every avenue We
have Travelled the same conclu-
sion-that the loss is to be suf-
fered by appellant (Cleary Broth
ers), not by appellee Mora
Phelps)."
Mrs. Phelps husband was killed
at Sugar Loaf in October of 1943
by a truck owred by the com
pany. He was standing off the
roadway when the truck skidded
off the road and struck and kill
-Ihl. He was employed the
time by the State Road Depart
ment. which was rebuilding the
roadway on Sugar Loaf.
