Court Modifies McClintic Order in Kanawha County Suit
Court alters McClintic order to move suit to Kanawha County circuit court in the state. The action challenged a contract as illegal and sought an injunction to restrain enforcement. The case ended in dismissal with an agreement to withdraw the contract and future similar deals. The West Virginia Uniformity Association then drafted a new contract with similar separation clauses but smaller penalties. Auditor Lawson, appointed in 1999, faced pressure to withdraw contracts after conferences and a three day deadline.
