Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided September 15, 1975No. 75-1118, 75-1664PublishedCited by 11 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
BELL, Circuit Judge:
Mitchell Energy Corporation seeks review of an order of the Federal Power Commission rejecting in part a proposed increased rate filed by Mitchell with the Commission. It was the position of the Commission that the increased rate was in conflict with Opinion No. 649 of the Commission approving an earlier settlement agreement allowing Mitchell special relief from area rates. The increased rate was therefore rejected to the extent of the conflict. We affirm but for a different reason.
