WILLIAMSON — A Lenore man is suing Cebridge Acquisition alleging that it is failing to abide by a contract that was agreed to in 1988.
Cebridge Acquisition is doing business as Suddenlink Communications.
Marion Ledson entered into a contract with Suddenlink in 1988 for an easement and right-of-way and, as part of the contract, he was to receive the basic channel line-up for $7.35 per month and the rate wouldn't change even if additional channels were added as long as the cable TV lines were attached to the poles, according to a complaint filed in Mingo Circuit Court.
Ledson claims in February 2020, Suddenlink began to increase his monthly rate and he notified the company multiple times regarding the agreement, but the company continued to increase his rates.
Ledson is seeking compensatory damages. He is represented by Greg K. Smith and Barry C. Marcum of the Law Office of Greg K. Smith in Williamson.
Mingo Circuit Court case number: 21-C-45
