The Bossier Bar is hosting a
peoples law school and the topic is Mineral Rights. This will be our yearly fundraiser and community outreach.
The tentative date is August 31, 2008. We are inviting 4-5 landowner attorneys from around the state to talk about all aspects of leasing, oil and gas and taxing bonuses and royalties. This is not a sign‘em up meeting. This is strictly informational and geared towards the landowner in leasing and litigation that might occur during the life of your lease.
The Bossier Bar will give
a free living will to all participants.
Tickets are $10 dollars if pre purchased and $12 at the door. Tickets will go on sale this week and seating is limited.
This event has not been made public yet, but it will be this week.
A rough draft of our web site is
www.bossierbar.blogspot.com
The reason I am making this post is that I need your help in instructing the speakers on
what they need to address. Once again, they know the answers--they won't be guessing. They will cover any issues that we want. Once again, they are donating their time and talent to help the Bossier Bar and you.
As the speakers are organizing their talks--
what issues /questions do you want them to address?
Also, I am inviting the local clerks of courts, the local tax assessors, and the department of conservation to have booths at this event.
Can ya'll think of any other government agency that we would need to invite that would be helpful to our participants.
Please comment and I will have time to put your issue in my request to them.
Once again we have a small bar association and this will be our community outreach project for the year. Please help us make it a success.
UPDATE:
The Bossier Clerk, Bossier Assessor, and Public Service Commissioner have all agreed to come and answer your questions. Also the Bossier Parish Attorney will discuss ordinances that are in the works to protect the landowners. We have several great landowner attorneys that have agreed to speak on topics, on the panel and answer your individual questions. I really need your help getting the word out. Our seating will be limited to 700 citizens per session and we will have two sessions. So we are only printing 1400 tickets. Thanks in advance for helping spread the word.
