West Virginia Supreme Court rejects Spencer hospital stay request
The West Virginia Supreme Court refused a request by Spencer employees and unions to block the Health Department plan to close Spencer State Hospital. Justices Hugh and Workman would have heard the case, while the other justices denied the injunction, keeping the closure on track. The petition argued a circuit judge failed to act on the inmate injunction request. Separately, Sarah Lowther of Williamstown departs for an 18 month stint hosting Radio Deutsche Welle Across the Atlantic from West Virginia Public Radio. Duquesne Light Co told 260 pensioners at its Jones coal mine it will cancel medical and life insurance Friday without a new UMW contract, amid the Pittston Coal strike context.
