A group of natural gas royalty owners in Western Pennsylvania are fighting mad and accusing Texas-based XTO Energy, Exxon Mobil Corporation’s subsidiary, of messing around with their royalty payments. The group recently filed a class action lawsuit against XTO Energy alleging royalty skimming and seeking reimbursement for royalties they claim were incorrectly withheld because of XTO Energy’s improper deductions of postproduction expenses.
David A. Borkovic, who is of counsel with the Pittsburgh-based office of Jones, Gregg, Creehan & Gerace, is representing the plaintiffs in the class action. The case, Marburger v. XTO Energy, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania.
