Sun Oil Company v. Federal Power Commission

Sun Oil Company v. Federal Power Commission
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided November 10, 1961 · Tuttle, Jones, Wisdom
297 F.2d 77; 1961 U.S. App. LEXIS 3221 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Sun Oil Company v. Federal Power Commission

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

It appearing that this Petition for Review seeks to modify or set aside certain orders of the Federal Power Commission issued by it in connection with its area-wide rate proceedings under Section 5(a) of the Natural Gas Act, 15 U.S.C.A. 717d (a), it is clear that it is an effort to review an interlocutory order of the kind which this Court held in Magnolia Petroleum Company v. Federal Power Commission, 236 F.2d 785, was not permissible.

The Motion of the Federal Power Commission to dismiss the Petition for Review is therefore granted. The Petition is dismissed.
