Troy Mining Corp. v. Itmann Coal Co.

West Virginia Supreme Court

Decided July 12, 1986No. 16729PublishedCited by 61 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

BROTHERTON, Justice:

In this case, Troy Mining Corporation complains that the Circuit Court of Wyoming County erroneously directed a verdict in favor of Itmann Coal Company, in a suit for wrongful termination of a contract mining agreement. The main issues in the case are whether the contract between the parties, or a seven-day mutual termination clause therein, was unconscionable, and, alternatively, whether there had been an oral modification of the contract. We find no error in the proceedings, and for reasons set out below, affirm the judgment of the circuit court.
