Description

This appeal follows a jury trial in an oil and gas case. Emerald Oil & Gas, L.C. ("Emerald"), a subsequent lessee, and intervening royalty interest owners brought suit against Exxon Corp. and Exxon Texas, Inc., as successor in interest to Humble Oil & Refining Co. ("Exxon"), for wrongful conduct in the development and abandonment of oil and gas wells in the Mary Ellen OConnor Field, near Refugio, Texas. The trial court granted Exxons motion for directed verdict and entered a take-nothing judgment against Emerald. The jury found in favor of the royalty interest owners on their causes of action against Exxon for waste and breach of contract and awarded the intervenors both actual and punitive damages. The trial court entered judgment in accordance with the verdict. All parties have appealed. The judgment is affirmed in part and reversed in part.
