I do not have any connection to this case, but I thought I would post it to keep this group informed. It was reported in the Salem News today that Nathan Wilson of Hanoverton, Ohio has filed a…Continue

Tax question: Sending a 1099 to the attorney who wrote your lease?

In 2012, I was in a landowner group headed by a law firm. We signed a lease written by that law firm and received our bonus. The law firm charged $250 per acre and it came out of our payment (lease…Continue

Indiana Smith replied to Utica Shale's discussion 'Batzli Well update ...' in the group Columbiana County, OH"Chrissy,
A couple issues: I think the main holdup is a lack of drilling rigs. There are only 2 operating in the county. The other factor is the lease timeline: There is no hurry on the Batzli well because the leases involved…"
Indiana Smith replied to Utica Shale's discussion 'Altenhof well update ...' in the group Columbiana County, OH"I have not found the entrance either. If they come in off of Murray, then it would be through a neighboring landowner. This might be possible IF they drill lateral 8H first (8H goes under this neighboring landowner... the other laterals…"
Indiana Smith replied to Utica Shale's discussion 'Altenhof well update ...' in the group Columbiana County, OH"It may have to do with some lease swapping between Hillcorp and CHK. Some (a lot) of the land to the NW of this pad site was under Hillcorp lease. It was just assigned to CHK on February 25th of this year. So now they can…"
Indiana Smith replied to Paul G. Bobnar Jr.'s discussion '3d geophysical surveys'"I doubt that anyone requested the survey. These seismic companies are independent and pick "hot spots" where they think they can sell data. Their business plan is to collect data, and then sell it to 5 to 7 different…"
J.D replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"I believe the best thing anyone can do is have an attorney review their lease for it's specific terms, especially older leases. In this case, royalties were paid after the assignment - however the breach of contract wasn't discovered until…"
Marcus Grayson replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"Cashing the check is a sign of acceptance, but most contracts only require the Lessee to tender payment. Once they've paid you their end is covered."
J.D replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"It was an assignment from Carlton Oil to Virco from July 2011. I believe the suit was filed last summer and royalties had been accepted. Virco has since been sold to Triad Hunter."
searcherone replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"J. D.
To which company did Virco assign the lease? Interesting that royalty had been paid and accepted. Do you know the time of events in case? One o&g lawyer always advised me NOT to cash the check as that was a…"
J.D replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"A voided assignment. No mention of "may not be unreasonably withheld" in the original lease, and royalties had been paid and accepted after the assignment occurred."
Fang F Fang replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"J.D,
What was the outcome ?"
Marcus Grayson replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"There is very, very little case law in Ohio about this subject. The outcome of cases like this will shape the face of the industry for decades. "
J.D replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"Fang,
You might want to check on the court decision filed in Washington County this week, Harding vs. Virco. It was a written consent issue. "
Fang F Fang replied to Indiana Smith's discussion 'Wilson vs. Beck Energy (Columbiana County, Ohio) assignment without consent'"This could be an important case.
Many assignment clauses require consent of the Lessor. But the clause usually states that the consent cannot be unreasonably denied. What is unreasonable ? If I'm a land owner maybe Even without specific…"

AboutWhat makes this site so great? Well, I think it's the fact that, quite frankly, we all have a lot at stake in this thing they call shale. But beyond that, this site is made up of individuals who have worked hard for that little yard we call home. Or, that farm on which blood, sweat and tears have fallen. [ Read More ] |
