UPHELD status graphic: Pocahontas Mining v. Jewell Ridge Coal Corp.. 010110 Pocahontas Mining v. Jewell Ridge Coal Corp. 01/11/2002 The trial court correctly interpreted a lease provision obligating a coal company that leased certain property for many years to leave intact a functional preparation plant at the end of the lease. The trial court's judgment is affirmed with a modification: if an action for breach of contract is commenced, any damages shall be determined as of the final termination date of the lease, not the date operation of the plant ceased.
