Columbiana County Landowner Files Class Action Suit Against Chesapeake Subsidiaries Alleging Underpaid Royalties

From ShaleOhio:
Last week, a class action was filed against three Chesapeake Energy Corp. subsidiaries in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. On behalf of herself and a class of similarly situated individuals, Carol L. Griebenow of Columbiana County is suing for breach of contract and breach of implied covenant, alleging that Chesapeake failed to pay her and the class members their full royalties due to them under the leases that the company had acquired from the Anschutz Exploration Corp.
Here is the full complaint:



UPDATE:  Oddly, the case has already been dismissed.  If more details become known, we will share them here.  Feel free to comment or send an email to us at admin@thedailydigger.com if you can share more information on why the case was dismissed just days after being filed.
