What happened

Defendants allegedly violated Oklahoma's Production Revenue Standards Act by failing to pay statutory interest (6-12%) on late payments of oil and gas production proceeds. The defendants failed to pay interest unless owners made a demand. Defendants denied wrongdoing and asserted various defenses.

Do you qualify?

Anyone who received late payments from Defendants for oil proceeds from Oklahoma wells on or after July 7, 2012, and has not already been paid statutory interest. Excluded are U.S. and Oklahoma government agencies, publicly traded oil and gas companies and affiliates, and others prohibited by professional conduct rules.

How to file

The exclusion deadline (December 9, 2019) and objection deadline (February 14, 2023) have both passed. Class members who did not exclude themselves are part of the settlement. Contact JND Legal Administration at 1-844-924-0848 or info@cline-sunoco.com for distribution information.

Common questions

How much does the Cline v. Sunoco Oil and Gas Production Revenue Settlement pay?
The total settlement fund is $155.7M. Actual amounts depend on how many valid claims are filed — most settlements divide a fixed fund pro rata, so a higher claim rate means a smaller individual check. An "up to" figure is a cap, not a guarantee.
Is the Cline v. Sunoco Oil and Gas Production Revenue Settlement notice real, or a scam?
JND Legal Administration is the settlement administrator for this case. Claims are filed at cline-sunoco.com. Filing a class action claim is always free — no legitimate settlement charges you to claim, and no administrator will ask for payment, a gift card, or your full Social Security number by email or text. If a notice asks for any of those, it is not from the administrator. When in doubt, ignore the link you were sent and go to the official settlement website directly.
When will payments from the Cline v. Sunoco Oil and Gas Production Revenue Settlement be sent?
Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. Payments cannot be issued until the court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved.
