Description

The plaintiff, Ben Zavorka, a head brakeman for defendant, Union Pacific Railroad, suffered injuries when the train he was riding in collided with another train between Rawlins and Cheyenne, Wyoming. Zavorka sued the railroad for negligence under the Federal Employers Liability Act, 45 U.S.C.A. ? 51 et seq. (1970). Following a jury trial, he was awarded $15,517.32, which was reduced by the percentage of negligence attributed to him. Contending that the amount of the judgment would have been greater had it not been for certain erroneous rulings of the trial court, Zavorka appeals. We reverse and remand for a new trial.
