Dialectical Federalism: A Tribute To The West Virginia Supreme Court Of Appeals, Gene R. Nichol

West Virginia Law Review

Over the course of the past decade, the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals has become something of a controversial institution. Allegedly seeking to "mold state government in its own image,"' the court has issued decisions restructuring the state property tax assessment and appraisal scheme, overseeing the funding of public education, invalidating a gubernatorial veto, expanding tort claims beyond the umbrella of workers compensation, and ordering emergency care for the homeless. As a result, the high court has, perhaps deservedly, "attained a reputation for dramatic intervention in public policy disputes.” As individual exercises of judicial authority, the court's determinations have …

The Expanding Role Of The West Virginia Supreme Court Of Appeals In The Review Of Workmen's Compensation Appeals, David M. Flannery, Joseph S. Beeson, M. Ann Bradley, Richard P. Goddard

West Virginia Law Review

The November elections of 1976 brought about a major change in the composition of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals. Three new justices, a majority of the court, were elected. The consequences of the election have been widely felt throughout the State. In no area has its impact been greater, however, than in the area of workmen's compensation law. The court has shown a great willingness to hear workmen's compensation appeals. In reviewing such appeals, the court has chosen to play an active role in the review of evidence, something generally avoided by prior courts. There has been little …

West Virginia Law Review

With the passage, on November 5, 1974, of the Judicial Reorganization Amendment to the West Virginia Constitution, a new era of judicial administration began for West Virginia. Central to this new judicial article was the unification of the lower state courts under the general supervision of the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia. The Amendment mandated the establishment of a magistrate court system, replacing the system of justice of the peace (J.P.) courts used in the Virginias since 1661. This article will examine and evaluate the legislative implementation of the magistrate courts system, discuss differences between the J.P. system …
