President Joe Biden’s administration has sued more than a dozen companies owned by West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice, a Republican who is running for the U.S. Senate, and some members of his family.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) states in the lawsuit that the companies and Justice’s son, who is the primary controller of many of the businesses, violated federal law by not paying penalties assessed for unresolved issues.
