<p>Thank you for the reply. So now it is the courts decision to decide who wins? Then if the mineral rights win, and a surface owner has your mineral rights, you can get a lawyer to get the rights back?</p>

<p> Dodd v Croskey has already been decided in favor of the mineral rights owners.</p>
<p> The two cases before the Ohio Supreme Court that will likely decide whether mineral rights owners or surface owners ultimately prevail are chesapeake v corban and walker v nau. Both have now presented oral arguments before the court. Chesapeake is the mineral rights owner in chesapeake v corban. I thought their oral argument was pretty lame. In walker v Nau, nau is the mineral rights owner. Their oral argument was very impressive, I thought. Another very encouraging thing for mineral rights owners is that the chief justice definitely sided with the mineral rights owners. However, a judge Pfeiffer definitely sided with the surface owners. I couldn't tell that any other judges leaned one way or another.</p>
<p> To watch these oral arguments go to the Ohio Supreme Court website and scroll down to "video archives". Then do a search for each case oral arguments.</p>
<p> I don't know how long it usually takes before the court generally comes to a decision after oral arguments. I believe both were presented in june.</p>
