This cause, an appeal from the judgment in favor of appellee, KCS Resources, LLC, signed March 25, 2013, was heard on the transcript of the record.

We therefore order that portion of the judgment REVERSED and severed and REMANDED for proceedings in accordance with this court’s opinion.

Further, we find no error in the remainder of the judgment and order it AFFIRMED.

We order appellant, Devon Energy Production Company, L.P., to pay all costs incurred in this appeal.
