I know plenty of guys in eastern Ohio who, if confronted by Josh Fox, will likely be more than happy to guide him on a tour of the local woods, from which he would either return in a different form or not at all.

Interesting, as close as that is to us im surpised never heard about that indicent.  Definately explains why security is so fussy at the site where the well is on our property. 

On another note, its amazing how neighbors arent nearly as friendly once the site prep and drilling starts.

Hasn't anyone offered Josh Fox a water sample survey filming where Deliverance was filmed yet?

Here in Ohio we are ready to take him on with the facts!

Where is your "proof", or did Jeff's dog eat it?

If you have the document, it should be able to redact your name and address and post a scanned copy.

Unless you are "Abarta Oil & Gas Co. Inc." there does not appear to be any Mortgage on your land (other than mortgage(s) you might have chosen to sign).

It appears that you currently have leased your O&G rights.

If a company that has O & G leases chooses to offer those leases as collateral for a loan, should they default on that loan, the leases will simply change hands.

Should  Abarta Oil & Gas Co. Inc. default on a loan for which they pledged their leases as collateral, you lose nothing. You cannot lose something that you do not own.

All that could change is the entity that holds that lease – a lease that doubtless has an Assignment Clause.

I am not sure whether you are delusional, paranoid, schizophrenic, intoxicated, high or just plain stupid (or some combination of the aforementioned); but your claims have no basis in reality.

I would go back to the Attorney who you had review you lease before signing and have him/her explain matters to you.

Aaahhh....Mr. William, can you kindly explain your terms on this mortgage encumbrance secured by your land, how much did you sign a note for and what interest did you get?  Is it amortized for 15 to 20 years, and does it have a balloon?  Aaaahhhh...did you have to qualify for this debt and what are your monthly payments?  I too, may have some dumb energy company slipping in a mortgage on my land and I think we need to call the POLICE!

William,

I think you are confusing a mortgage on the land with and encumbrance on the lease. Their mortgage is attached to the lease and they should have a right to do that . After all, they do not own the land and cannot, therefore, place an encumbrance upon it. They do, however own the lease and they can do as they please with that, as long as it does not impact your mortgage, which it should not.

Where I live, in New Mexico, virtually no one owns the mineral rights under the surface land they own. It does not pose any problems for mortgages here, so I don't see why it would there. I think the banks there are just not used to having a split estate as much of the West does.

William I like the others here would like to know.

 How in the H does anyone take out a mortgage upon property they do not own? I mean like we need to take out a few mortgages to buy each others property as a group then split the US with that money!

  As far as assigning those that have been in GOMS for a while use the term reassign which is completely legal unless lease language would prohibit it.
