Mitchell v. Amerada Hess Corp.
Supreme Court of Oklahoma
1Opinion of the Court
HARGRAVE, Justice.
This appeal arises from the trial of 18 actions to cancel oil and gas leases in the District Court of Ellis County, Oklahoma, the Honorable Charles M. Wilson, presiding. This appeal refers to 13 of the 18 cases consolidated for trial to the extent that the evidence presented would apply to each separate case. The balance of five actions, being against Shell Oil Company, have not been appealed. A judgment in that company’s favor was rendered because there was no dispute Shell had complied with those duties urged to inure in an oil and gas lease in this action.
