Railroads win landmark oil land case at Supreme Court
The Supreme Court voided patent clauses that would have reverted $700 million in oil lands to the government, ruling they were irregular but not attackable collaterally. Justice Vandeventer said government action had expired and noted the broader impact on Transcontinental railroads and mineral land status. The decision upheld the 1996 Pipe Line Act and found Kentucky pooling laws unconstitutional while deeming other pipelines as common carriers.
