Description
1 This is an original proceeding in this court to review an order of the State Industrial Court en banc, which in turn affirmed an order of the trial judge of said court, which denied an award of compensation benefits to petitioner. The question decisive of the matter is whether claimants contract of employment was consummated in Oklahoma or in Texas - the residence state of claimants employer, Wallace, and the state where the accident occurred. A somewhat incidental question is presented also, the same being whether respondent Union Equity Cooperative Exchange and its insurance carrier should have been held liable to claimant in a secondary capacity - that is, secondarily to the liability of respondent Wallace. A finding that the employment contract was consummated outside Oklahoma will render unnecessary this courts determination of the matter involving primary and secondary liability to claimant for benefits for it will then follow that the State Industrial Court of Oklahoma was correct when it held it did not have jurisdiction of the claim.
