Operator pays. Contact the operator and tell them about changes in the title.

Listen to KB & Krow, been a real hard day for me and wasn't reading as deep into the question as I should have been.

Thanks.

In practice, do the royalty checks tend to come from the lessee or the operator?

Sounds like another opportunity for things to get ugly. What happens if the lessee goes bankrupt, goes out of business, dies, flees the country a step ahead of the law, simply refuses to pay, or can't be found? Can the operator keep operating without paying?

And yes, we do have a judgment of possession and have notified the lessee, who has not responded in any form, or returned phone calls.
