CHARLESTON — A rental company is suing an oil and gas independent producer, citing alleged breach of lease agreement and unjust enrichment.
Adler Tank Rentals LLC filed a complaint in Kanawha Circuit Court against Cunningham Energy LLC alleging that it retained the benefit of using the plaintiff's equipment without paying fair compensation.
According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that at the request of the defendant, on Dec. 12, 2017, it leased the defendant certain equipment. After allowance for all proper credits for payments and/or returned merchandise, if any, the amount of $49,568.80 remains due and owing.
