OPINION

RANSOM, Chief Justice.

The Abraham family appeals from a declaratory judgment in an action brought by El Paso Production Company (El Paso) to determine the validity of an option contract and ownership of the right to repurchase gas rights under a federal oil and gas lease. El Paso cross-appeals from an amended judgment wherein the district court reduced a sanction for contempt of court from $24,000 to $300. On the Abrahams’ appeal we affirm the decision of the court below, but on the cross-appeal we reverse and remand for entry of judgment that conforms to the findings of fact.
