This case was filed in the District Court, Rogers County, Oklahoma, case number CJ-23-88, and was removed to federal court by the Defendant.

In every contract in Oklahoma, there is an implied duty of good faith and fair dealing.
Outcome: Settled for an undisclosed sum and dismissed with prejudice.
