OKLAHOMA PACKING CO. v. GAS CO.

No. 19.

309 U.S. 4 (1939)

OKLAHOMA PACKING CO. ET AL. v. OKLAHOMA GAS & ELECTRIC CO. ET AL.

Supreme Court of United States.

Decided December 4, 1939.

Opinion on Petition for Rehearing delivered January 15, 1940.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mr. Paul Ware, with whom Mr. W.R. Brown was on the brief, for petitioners.

Messrs. I.J. Underwood and Streeter B. Flynn, with whom Mr. Robert M. Rainey was on the brief, for respondents.

MR. JUSTICE FRANKFURTER delivered the opinion of the Court.

The case concerns a rate controversy which has been winding its slow way through state and federal courts for thirteen years.1 While the relationship of two utilities with Wilson & Co., a consumer of natural gas, complicates the situation, the legal issues before us may be disposed of as though this were a typical case of a utility resisting an order reducing its rates.
