The Greenbrier said in a court filing this week it plans to shut down its casino and lay off up to 90 workers amid a refinancing deal unless certain conditions are met.
The move comes as the family of U.S. Sen. Jim Justice works to close a refinancing deal with Kennedy Lewis Investment Management in an ongoing federal debt and receivership dispute, according to a status report filed on Wednesday.
The filing said the decision to close the casino was made as the West Virginia Lottery could not weigh in on the transaction before the planned closing of the deal Friday.
