Court rules railroads public servants under state control
The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals ruled in Laurel Fork and Sand Hill Railroad Co. v West Virginia Transportation Co that railroads with special charters fall under legislative control for freight rates. The decision, reversing prior rulings, holds the railroad bound by state authority even when charter terms appear to limit adjustment of charges. The opinion cites the Prentice and other landmark cases and outlines the implications for rate setting and charter constraints.
