STATE OF FLORIDA v. AHMED MOHAMED ALI KALIL

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • involving a suit by a non-employee against a railroad under the Federal Safety Appliance Act for injuries sustained when he fell from a boxcar
  • A FELA plaintiff “is not required to prove common-law proximate causation.”
  • to succeed on an FELA claim premised on an FSAA violation, the plaintiff must demonstrate a “statutory violation” and that their “injury resulted ‘in whole or in part’ from the railroad’s violation of the Act”
  • where a hearsay objection to testimony by a witness follows the answer and the objecting party does not state reasons for the belated objection and does not move to strike the answer, the answer remains in the record for consideration even if the hearsay objection is sustained
  • explaining the level of proof required under the FSAA
