Patricia J. Schultheiss v. Heinrich Enterprises Inc. et al., Case No. 2016-0623
Fourth District Court of Appeals (Washington County)

ISSUES:
- Should the doctrine of "estoppel" prevent a landowner from terminating an oil and gas lease if the owner accepts benefits from the driller, such as free gas to the home?
- Does a prolonged, but temporary, production stoppage of an oil and gas well during the secondary term of an oil and gas lease automatically terminate a lease?
- Should Ohio's general statute of limitations prevent any claim from being filed based on an incident that happened more than 21 years before the filing of the lawsuit?
