WV Dept. of Transportation v. Lawrence and Michael Pifer

Case Number:
18-0517
Case Date:
30-10-2019
Case Information:
The DOH appeals the denial of its motion for a new trial and to amend or alter the judgment following a jury trial in a condemnation proceeding. The jury found that respondents were entitled to damages in the amount of $175,165 for condemnation blight. The DOH argues that the circuit court erred in applying the law relative to condemnation blight, allowing for business losses to be awarded, and in calculating interest upon the judgment.
