1Opinion of the CourtGarrett, J.
11 This matter involves a dispute over the proper interpretation to be given to a depth limitation clause contained in a large sale of mineral interests in 2008, from International Paper Company (“IP”) to Chesapeake Royalty, LLC (“Chesapeake”). The plaintiff here, BRP, LLC (“BRP”), later acquired mineral interests from IP and brought this action seeking a declaratory judgment that it owned all of the Bossier Shale formerly held by IP. BRP appeals from the trial court judgment which denied its request and ruled in favor of Chesapeake. For the following reasons, we affirm.
