Conflict Of Laws-Enforcement Of Foreign Claims For Taxes And Workmen's Compensation Premiums, C. J. Rice S. Ed.
Michigan Law Review
By reason of work done in Ohio, defendant-employer came within the provisions of that state's compulsory workmen's compensation law.

The appellant appealed to the United States Supreme Court on the ground that the …
