Coal company owned by West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice is found in contempt
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — A coal company owned by West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice has been found in contempt by a federal judge for not following an order to pay an insurance company to maintain collateral for financial obligations.
U.S. District Judge Elizabeth Dillon found Southern Coal Corp. in civil contempt Monday and granted the insurance company’s request to fine it $2,500 per day until it complies with the order, the Charleston Gazette-Mail reported.
The ruling dismissed Southern Coal’s argument that it was unable to comply with the order for payment, issued five months ago, because it isn’t actively mining coal and has no income.
That September order said Southern Coal failed to satisfy contractual obligations and must pay Charleston-based BrickStreet Mutual Insurance Co. $503,985 to maintain collateral for financial obligations, along with attorney fees. BrickStreet provides workers’ compensation and employers’ liability insurance.
Southern Coal argued that other Justice-controlled companies could no longer pay the company’s debts because of recent judgments against them, but the judge said in the contempt order that no evidence had been presented to support that assertion.
Southern Coal has seven days to comply before the daily fine begins, according to the order.
The Justice family has been named in multiple lawsuits regarding business dealings. A Virginia bank said this month it would delay plans to auction off land at Justice’s posh resort, the Greenbrier Sporting Club, in an attempt to recover more than $300 million on defaulted business loans by the Republican governor’s family.
KINGSTREE, S.C. (WCHS) — A Randolph County couple were arrested in South Carolina on Sunday after they allegedly fled West Virginia with their child, which they didn’t have legal custody over, troopers said.
Darries L. Fauntleroy and Megan R. Fauntleroy, both 40, of Montrose were each charged with felony conspiracy and taking a minor child from a custodian out of the state of West Virginia, according to a press release from the Elkins Detachment of West Virginia State Police.
Troopers said the seven-year-old child was in custody of the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources. The Fauntleroys are the biological parents of the child, but allegedly neither had legal custody of the child. In particular, Megan was allegedly not allowed to be in the presence of the child, according to troopers.
Troopers said according to WVDHHR, the couple took the child from the area and were believed to have fled the state, making their way to South Carolina. After an investigation between WVSP, the United States Marshals Service and local South Carolina law enforcement, troopers said the couple was located.
The couple was then arrested in Kingstree, S.C., by officers with the Kingstree Police Department, the Williamsburg County Sheriff’s Office and the United States Marshals Service, troopers said, adding that they are both awaiting extradition back to West Virginia.
Meanwhile, the child was safely located and is in the custody of the South Carolina Department of Social Services awaiting a safe return to the care of WVDHHR.
