Hello, I have recently received documents from a lawyer‘s office in regards to cause CD number 2023-003076 with a legal description of Sections 1, 12 and 13, Township 4 North, Range 5 West, Grady County, Oklahoma. The order was granting motion to extend multiunit horizontal well interim order with the hearing taking place on February 18, 2025.

My question is the owners of this acreage, long deceased family members, and I am assuming because my father was an heir and my father has passed we are receiving notification as my father‘s heirs. Apparently, both persons owned one and a half acres each of property that Casillas Petroleum Resource Partners LLC wishes to sell or are currently drilling. How do I get more information about these coordinates and if oil or gas rights belong to the heirs and if so, what does this mean for us? Appreciate any help understanding what all this means.

Lots of questions here.

1. If you receive the notice or it’s in the name of your father, then Casillas sent it to you as it hasn’t been probated in Oklahoma, or if it has, then the final order has not been recorded in the Grady County Clerk’s office.

2. If you receive the notice, then your father owned an interest in one or more of the three sections.

3. If your father owned the interest and he is now deceased, then the heirs own it. You will need to do an affidavit of death and heirship at a minimum, and possibly a probate.

4. Typically, there is a lease brokerage named in the last paragraph. It is probably Osage Land. If so, you can always call them.

5. At some point, when the well gets drilled and if your title is cleared up, you will receive royalties.

Not giving legal advice since that is Tim’s domain, but it you get a pooling order, it might be a good idea to answer it in the 20 calendar days and let them know that you are in the middle of getting the title cleared up. I always pick the highest royalty option. As a geologist, there are likely to be several horizontal wells there and I would want the highest royalty on them.

Tim has excellent suggestions. You can search Grady County land records here: [Grady County | OKCountyRecords.com | County Clerk Public Land Records for Oklahoma](https://okcountyrecords.com/search/grady#advanced-search)

Often you may make a pooling election as an heir, but you may need to follow up with AOH and/or Probate to get into pay status.
