Black lung claims languish

Article Abstract:

Coal miners suffering from pneumoconiosis, commonly called as black lung, have had a legal right to compensation for black lung as this condition has little hope of recovery. A paper 'Roanoke Times' investigated that rarely do the courts conscientiously protect that right, and hence the coal miners have little hope of getting financial compensation from the coal companies responsible for their condition.
