In an 8-0 decision, the Oklahoma Supreme Court has given the green light for Corporation Commission staff to continue its attempt to obtain documents from ONEOK Corporation. Staff had requested the documents from ONEOK stating the documents are needed to ascertain whether ONEOK subsidiary ONG paid a “fair, just, and reasonable” price for the gas it supplied Oklahomans during the past heating season, a cost ultimately borne by the ratepayer.

 

ONEOK had asked the Oklahoma Supreme Court to stop Commission staff attempts to get the documents in question. In its decision, the Court denied that request.
