Ok, I’ve heard it all now. Cheapeake Energy loses. They claim they now don’t have a chance to ‘argue’ their case. What’s up with that? The case HAS been heard, then appealed to the WV SCoA. They didn’t take it up. That means they see no problem with the lower court ruling.
So — Since Cheasapeake loses [again] the attempt to BLACKMAIL the state by changing their minds on building a multi-million dollar headquarters office in Charleston. Most reasonable people knew that wasn’t going to happen anyway. It was an attempt to sway the SCoA and politicians.
Then the GOVERNOR OF WEST VIRGINIA JOE MANCHIN says on WCHS TV 8 that the JUDICIAL branch of government needs to be more involved in the LEGISLATIVE process?!
What the hell is wrong with people?!
Never thought I’d say it but AMEN to that!!

How about ‘less involved?’ How about totally uninvolved. Guess he never heard of separation of powers?

You are not the first conservative I’ve heard call this a case of sour grapes rather than “judicial activism” gone amok.
I think that Chesapeake has less traction going than they had hoped for out of this ruling.
