The former chief executive officer of Massey Energy, Don Blankenship, who is charged with conspiring to violate safety and health standards at Upper Big Branch Mine, will not be allowed to go home for the holidays. A docket entry on Monday showed that a Federal District Court judge, Irene Berger, denied Mr. Blankenship’s motion to travel for the holidays; he has a home in Nevada, though it was unclear if that was where he wanted to go. During his case, Mr. Blankenship’s travel is restricted to southern West Virginia; Pike County, Ky.; and Washington, D.C. The case’s court filings are unavailable to the public under a gag order. A 2010 explosion at Upper Big Branch killed 29 men.
