Description
In this appeal from the trial courts final summary judgment, the parties dispute the terms of a 1946 deed by which Paul Freeman conveyed title to certain property to Kenneth R. Hixon and Mary Katherine Hixon (the "Freeman-Hixon Deed"). Freemans grandson, also named Paul Freeman ("Paul"), claims that the Freeman-Hixon Deed reserved to his grandfather a one-half participating interest in and to all oil, gas, and other minerals in or under the land conveyed by the deed. Paul contends that he owns a one-third interest in this reservation. His claim is opposed by Stephens Production Company, which asserts rights to certain portions of the mineral estate through a mineral lease executed by the Hixons successors in interest, some of who are intervenors in this matter and also oppose Pauls claim.
