CHARLESTON — Brickstreet Mutual Insurance Company has filed a lawsuit against a lumber company, citing alleged breach of contract and unjust enrichment.

The liability insurer filed its complaint against Hayes Scott Fence & Lumber Inc. in Kanawha Circuit Court, alleging that the domestic corporation failed to perform its contractual obligations. According to the lawsuit, the plaintiff alleges that between March 7 and May 10, 2018, it provided the defendant with workers' compensation and employer's liability insurance. As a result of Hayes Scott's alleged breach, Brickstreet Mutual claims it has suffered damages in the amount of $50,090, and other consequential and incidental damages.

The plaintiff holds Hayes Scott Fence & Lumber Inc. responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to pay the premium owed to the plaintiff and has been unjustly enriched at the expense of plaintiff. The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment in its favor in the amount of $50,090, attorney's fees, costs, interest and such other just and proper relief. 


Brickstreet Mutual is represented by Arnold J. Janicker and Steven P. Turner of Jenkins Fenstermaker PLLC in Huntington.
