90 days are up, now what?

Is it the norm for a company to pay out the first royalty check late? And if so, how long will it take to receive the first one. They haven't sent a do yet.

 

Thanks

Don't hold your breath waiting on that Division order. It could be years before you see it depending on the circumstances and the operator. Our minerals fall in 3 sections that have all been in pay for over two years with no D.O. These are KCS/Petrohawk wells though. We have a small holding with Chesapeake and they sent out the D.O. just as the 90 days expired. Our KCS leases are paying though. They were well past 180 days when we had an attorney send a demand letter. The first check including back pay came shorly thereafter. My advice would be to first call and ask for a time frame and how much $ to expect. Always be nice on the phone especially when you leave a message and they will call you back. If that doesnt work have a lawyer write a demand letter.

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
