Coal tax case set for May hearing in Pennsylvania appeals court
The U S Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia tentatively schedules Friday May 21 to hear arguments in a tax dispute involving Morgantown area coal miners. The case stems from Perry Township's earned income tax imposed on miners at Christopher Coal Co's Humphrey No 7 Mine near Mt Morris by the West Virginia border. Miners, mostly West Virginia residents, had secured an injunction in Monongalia County Circuit Court.
