Heading: Appeals to the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia

Text: From these three orders of the Circuit Court of Kanawha County, the Bayer companies appealed to this Court. By order entered March 13, 2008, this Court consolidated these cases for purposes of briefing, argument and decision due to the commonality of parties involved in and identical errors assigned by the three appeals. Also, by that same ruling, this Court ordered that the case of In re Tax Assessment of Foster Foundation's Woodlands Retirement Community, ___ W. Va. ___, 672 S.E.2d 150, 2008 WL 4868290 (2008), be heard in conjunction with the consolidated case sub judice due to the similarity of the issues involved. This Court recently issued an opinion in Foster, which decision will be instructive to our determination of the matter presently before us. [18]
