Description
1 In this suit for accounting and cancellation of an oil-and-gas lease, four issues are tendered for our decision: [1] If a lessee enters and begins to drill a well with the acquiescence of some but not all cotenants in the mineral estate, is he liable to the nonacquiescing cotenants as a bad-faith trespasser? [2] Is the effective date of the Corporation Commissions [Commissions] despacing order dispositive on the issue whether the oil-and-gas leasehold in suit is subject to cancellation for want of production? [3] Did the trial court err in refusing to grant a jury trial and in depriving the mineral owners of an opportunity to secure an award of punitive damages? and [4] Did the regulatory orders of the Commission operate effectively to destroy the lessees right in property to protect their mineral lease by drilling? We answer all four questions in the negative.
