New York State Commission for Investigation of Workmen's Compensation Law Administration Indexed Abstracts of Witness Statements

Alphabetical by last name of subject.

This series is comprised mostly of 5" x 8" cards serving as an index to and synopsis of witness testimony, apparently from private hearings.

The cards provide the following: name of subject (person about whom testimony was given); home and business address; occupation; name of witness (if other than the subject); brief summary of witness's statements regarding the subject (e.g. subject's payment or receipt of kickbacks; referrals of cases to or by subject); and file number (apparently citing a no longer extant series of files of witness statements).

The series also contains an unidentified set of 3" x 5" cards apparently tracking receipt from and return to the Labor Department of compensation case files. The cards provide case number, occasionally a name, and an indication (sometimes dated) that the case has arrived or been returned.

All investigative materials in Moreland Act commission records are indefinitely restricted pursuant to Executive Law sect. 6 and 63.8 and Civil Rights Law sect. 73.8. Requests for access to such materials are referred to the Governor's Office.

Closed hearing materials: Restricted; Executive Law, Section 63.8.
