Does North Dakota law say that widows get 50% and siblings get the other 50%?
That’s what I received when my husband died and they wanted to lease the property. My son signed off on this share and gave it back to me.
Our family is confused. We know our stepmom has already been paid some money. We understand they are drilling. Then we got a letter in the mail that we are supposed to sign that was dated a year ago. The Diamond Co says we won’t be signing our rights away by signing it, but if we are supposed to get some money by law, why aren’t we? And why do we need to sign a paper that’s dated a year ago?
Ms. Wilcox, you need a lawyer. Please get a lawyer; I’ve had experience with what Diamond Resources will do.

Has anyone recently leased mineral rights in the past month or so. If so did you get competitive bids and who is currently giving the best prices/royalties?
