Deed Whereabouts Unknown

Leigh,

I wouldn’t use a runsheet as any criteria in determining whether anyone is good or evil. That may not be up to the landman. The landman has what is called a fiduciary relationship with his client. The runsheet is the work product of the client. It was obtained at the client’s expense. They have no obligation to release work product, and many don’t. That doesn’t make them good or bad. It’s just business. They may want to keep that confidential since it is their work product. The landman may or may not have a copy of the deed readily available.
