Divorce delays Greenbrier Clinic administrator sentencing
James G. Ward, former administrator at The Greenbrier Clinic, faces one to 10 years for grand larceny after a plea to stealing over $200,000. A divorce settlement delayed restitution payments of $175,000, leading Judge James Rowe to reset sentencing for August 31. Ward admitted embezzling from 1991 to 1996 while administrator in White Sulphur Springs.

Jury Rules for Rhone-Poulenc in Charleston Class Action
A federal jury in Charleston ruled against Kanawha County residents in a class action over a February 1996 toluene release at Rhone-Poulenc A Co Institute plant. The fire and leak shut Interstate 64 for an hour, prompted indoor safety advisories for about 30,000 people, and led to three respiratory or skin irritation cases. Punitive damages were barred as plaintiffs failed to prove the case.

Sophia Ambulance Shutdown Tied to New State Licensing
Sophia Ambulance Service, run by the Sophia Area Volunteer Fire Department, remains halted after missing a required training form under new EMS licensing rules. Jeff Pittman said the state informed him two weeks ago that the paperwork wasn’t completed in the correct format. Emergency calls in Sophia are now handled by Jan-Care Ambulance with Best Ambulance as backup as eight full-time and several part-time workers lose wages and the firm faces irreparable harm.
