COMMUNITY SUPPORT

for the Communities support in

The Hinton Lions have been
providing assistance for over 18
years and are asking community

individual's application is screened

assistance are pursued before the
Lions Club provides help.

The Capitol Report
Jeff Campbell
August28, 2018
On June 26, Governor Jim Justice
called the second extraordinary
session of the 2018 West Virginia
Legislature. The governor's
proclamation, House Resolution 201,
called "for the limited purpose of
considering and acting upon the
following matters: Matters relating
to the removal of one or more
Justices of the Supreme Court of
Appeals of West Virginia, including,
but not limited to, censure,
impeachment, trial, conviction and
disqualification " When a special
session is called, the governor sets
the agenda, and only those bills on
the call are up for debate. The House
Judiciary Committee met nine times
from July 12 to August 7, when
Articles of Impeachment were voted
on by the members. That led to the
continuation of the second
extraordinary session on August 13
and 14. All four remaining Justices -
Robin Davis, Allen Loughry, Beth
gain in violation of West Virginia
Code. I voted yes, and this article was
adopted, 96-0 4
Article 10 - Providing false
testimony to the House Finance
Committee. Loughry made
statements under oath before the
West Virginia House of Delegates
Finance Committee with
the deliberate intent to deceive,
regarding renovations and purchases
for his office, asserting that he had
no knowledge and involvement in
these renovations. I voted yes, and
this article was adopted, 94-2-4.
Article 11 - Directed that personal
pictures and items be placed in
customized picture frames and be
paid for by state monies, with these
items later being removed from his
state office and converted to his
personal use and benefit. House
Judiciary chairman John Shott
withdrew this article, so there was
no vote. Loughry was suspended
from the West Virginia Supreme
Court in June following a 32-count
statement of charges by the state's
Judicial Investigation Commission
following alleged violations of the
Judicial Code of Conduct. His false
testimony to the House Finance
Committee, moving the Cass Gilbert
desk from the capitol (on West
Virginia Day 2013) for his home
office for over four years, along with
using state vehicles and gas cards to
make trips to promote his book, and
using Court computers for his
its money, but it should not be the
basis for impeachment.
On November 9, I took an oath on
the House floor to uphold the
Constitution of the State of West
Virginia. My votes on these articles
refects my respect for the oath I
swore to uphold. Impeachment is
serious and should be used for high
crimes. Overspending in these cases
is poor judgment, but it's not a crime.
Should the ability to impeach be
determined by a disagreement in
personal taste or the amount on the
price tag? This is dangerous territory
and should not be used as a complete
takeover of separate branch of
government. On November 6, West
Virginia voters will have a chance to
amend the Constitution through
Amendment 2, which will give the
constitutional authority for
legislative oversight on the Supreme
Court's budget. I will vote yes on
Amendment 2 on Election Day.

capitol. On June 20, 2013, six months

removed from the capitol and taken
to his home in Charleston, where it
stayed for four and a half years. This
violated a West Virginia Code which

furnishings of the state capitol from
the premises. I voted yes, and this
article was adopted, 97-0-3. Article
8 - Using state vehicles for personal
use.
Beginning in December 2012,
Loughry intentionally acquired state
vehicles for personal use, including
the use of a state-issued fuel card to
travel to, among other places, The
Greenbrier on one or more occasions
for book signing and sales of the book
he authored, "Don't Buy Another
Vote, I Won't Pay for a Landslide: The
Sordid And Continuing History of
Political Corruption in West
Virginia." This charge constitutes the
use of state resources and property
for personal gain in violation of West
Virginia Code. I voted yes, and this
article was adopted, 96-0-4. Article
9 - Using state computers for
personal use. Loughry used state
resources, such as computer
equipment and hardware for
predominantly personal use,
including a computer not intended to
be connected to the court's network,
utilized state resources to install
computer access services as his home
for predominantly personal use, and
utilized state resources to provide
maintenance and repair of computer
services for his residence.
This acts as the use of state
resources and property for personal
$500,000 to renovate and remodel
her personal office, which included
a $20,500 oval rug, an $8,000 desk
chair, and over $23,000 in design
services. I voted no, and this article
was adopted, 56-41-3.
Article 12 - Justice Walker spent
approximately $131,000 to renovate
and remodel her personal office,
which included $27,000 in items
listed as office furnishings and
wallpaper, l voted no, and this article
was rejected, 51-44-5.
Article 13 - Justice Workman
spent $111,000 to renovate and
remodel her personal office, which
included the purchase of wide plank
cherry flooring. Using the dollar
amount standard set in rejecting
Article 12, Chairman Shott withdrew
this article, so there was no vote.
Article 14 - The four justices - Davis,
Loughry, Walker, and Workman -
failed to hold each other accountable
including remodeling offices,
unaccountable personal use of state
vehicles, regular lunches from
restaurants, framing of personal
items, etc. Article 14 charges the
justices failed to provide reasonable
and proper supervisory oversigkt of
the operations of the Supreme Court.
I voted no, and this article was
adopted, 51.-44-5.
I voted no on these articles
because, as much as I disapprove of
the lavish spending, the legislative
branch has no authority over the
judicial branch's budget. In fact, the
Court controls its own budget and is
provided that authority under our
Constitution. Therefore, no law was
broken. I don't agree with the Court
purchasing a $32,000 couch, but it's
not illegal. I cannot and will not
defend the way the Court has spent
sitting judge is sick, suspended, or
not available to do their job. State
law limits the amount of money a
senior status circuit judge can make.
The Court converted senior status
circuit judges who were close to the
gap to independent contractors, so
they receive a 1099 instead ofa W2.
This allowed some judges to make
more than the cap. I voted no on
these articles because the
Constitution REQUIRES the Court
to make sure courts across our state
has judges to hear cases. The
Constitution trumps the statute. The
justices have a duty to make sure
circuit courts in West Virginia are
open. Most recently, senior status
circuit judges have been appointed
in Kanawha, McDowell, Nicholas
County, and Randolph counties.
Post Script -
The day after impeachment
proceedings ended, Davis resigned
from the Supreme Court. Walker and
Workman said they would not resign
and will face a Senate trial, expected
to begin in September. Last
Saturday, Governor Justice
appointed former Speaker ot the
House Tim Armstead and former 3rd
District Congressman Evan Jenkins
to fill the seats vacated by Ketchum
and Davis. Both seats on the bench
will be up for election of the
unexpired terms on the November 6
General Election ballot. Proudly
serving my hometown 42nd District
counties of Greenbrier, Monroe and
Summers!
