FILE - In this Feb. 19, 2019, file photo, West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice speaks during a press conference at the state Capitol in Charleston, W.Va. Gov. Justice has agreed on Thursday, June 6, 2019, to pay a $1.23 million court-ordered sanction against one of his family’s companies. Justice’s lawyers and federal prosecutors said in a joint court filing Thursday that they’ve reached a deal for Justice Energy Co. to clear the fine in three payments of $410,000. The sanction stems from an unpaid 2016 fine ordered over a contract breach. In a statement, attorney Mike Carey said the debt was incurred when a Russian company owned Justice Energy Co. The debt ballooned because the Russian company’s lawyer ignored orders to appear in court, Carey said. (Craig Hudson/Charleston Gazette-Mail via AP, File)
