Can someone give me any insight into this situation. A landowner signs a lease and then later contests the lease in a law suit. The leasing agent flips the contested lease to a big player, company X,  before final litigation. Company X approaches the landowner to contract for a surface site agreement for a well pad. Landowner finds out Company X may not bedrilling the well on the proposed well site, appears company X will flip site to Company Z, which allows company Z to use surface site to drill into & produce from an adjoining section. Is this the norm? Any insight will be appreciated.
