United States Court of Appeals Upholds Tonawanda Coke Guilty Verdict

The United States Court of Appeals has upheld both the March 2014 guilty jury verdict on Tonawanda Coke and the millions of dollars in fines imposed on the corporation for its violations of the Clean Air Act.

Tonawanda Coke and its attorneys argued that TCC did not cause harm members of the public’s property or health, but the Court of Appeals disagreed and upheld the fines issued by the Judge in Buffalo in March of 2014. The full decision can be read here: 14-1091_so (1):
