Rehearing Filed In Massey-Caperton Case
WEST VIRGINIA....
A rehearing petition has been filed in West Virginia Supreme Court in connection with the Harman Mining-Massey Energy case. The petition challenges, "In its zeal and determination to deliver a complete total victory to Massey, this court, by adopting the written opinion of acting Chief Justice Robin Davis, has violated Hugh Caperton's right to due process." Davis decided the contract dispute occurred in Virginia and should not have been a West Virginia case, but Justice Margaret Workman filed a dissenting opinion.
