A state Superior Court panel has affirmed a $7.8 million verdict against Consol Energy Inc. in favor of two men who were injured when a Consol staircase that they were descending collapsed. The ruling upholds the final judgment of Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas Judge David N. Wecht, now a Superior Court judge, who denied Consol's post-trial motions and tacked on delay damages to the jury's multimillion-dollar verdict.
