Friesen of Garden City Surrenders Law License
Garden City attorney James Friesen surrendered his state law license amid disciplinary proceedings. The surrender does not admit guilt, per Hazlett, with allegations remaining. Complaints involve an insurance settlement for a bicycle accident and nearly 175 thousand dollars tied to a kidnapping case, including substantial attorney fees. Friesen said the decision reflects the proceedings and plans to continue farming and pursue cases elsewhere.

Local court delays Amoco conduct review to five years
Local attorney notes Judge Smith will evaluate Amoco's conduct over five years instead of three, a move Crotty calls unique. Expanding the period could aid stripper well royalty owners by broadening consideration of actions affecting low-volume wells and their profitability, though it may affect newer wells. The Finney County case centers on local gas wells with lead plaintiff George Smith and ties to Gordon Penny’s family.
