Description

This action was brought by a seaman against his employer to recover damages for injuries sustained because of alleged unseaworthiness of the vessel on which he was employed or because of alleged negligence of his employer. The district court simply entered judgment for the libellant in the sum of $2500,00. No findings of fact or conclusions of law were entered, as required by Admiralty Rule 46 1/2. Thereupon, the respondent, without (so far as the record shows) calling such failure to the attention of the district court, or moving the court to make findings of fact and conclusions of law, appealed to this Court. Here it insists that the record does not reveal any negligence on its part or any unseaworthiness of its tug.
