Supreme Court Grants Writs in West Virginia Cases
The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals grants writs of error in two Jefferson Circuit Court decisions involving E. Blue vs Campbell Blue and James Mason vs Wall. The cases address farm interests near Kearneysville and a street opening through Rin Ion lands. The court also affirms a Jefferson Circuit ruling in Peter W. Rouss vs Bettie A. Rouss, granting Bettie a life estate in Shannon Hill farm with legacies due to Peter after the life estate ends. A Putnam county challenge to a head roads law seeks to block private property seizure for highway building without prior damages ascertainment, pending Supreme Court review on constitutional grounds.
