Sentencing Postponed For Former Patriot Foreman
WEST VIRGINIA....
At the request of prosecutors, U.S. District Judge Irene Keeley postponed Tuesday's sentencing hearing for former Patriot Coal Corp. underground mine foreman John Renner of Granville. Renner pleaded guilty to filing a false inspection report at Patriot's Federal No. 2 mine in Fairview. He is cooperating with an ongoing investigation. Patriot has said in regulatory filings that it has turned over methane detection equipment and test results from the mine to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
