Court Reverses Condemnation Award on Wilcockson Ranch
The Third Court of Civil Appeals in Austin reversed a Coke County ruling on the value of oil and gas properties on Mrs. J. R. Wilcockson’s Wilcockson ranch and ordered a new trial on mineral rights and production aspects. The case involves a $754,515 condemnation award for 4014 acres at the Robert Lee dam site, with 3883 acres flooded and the rest to be fenced for pumps and recreation.
