摘要

In earlier litigation, Patterson v. BP America Production Co., 185 P.3d 811,167 0.&G.R. 405 (Colo. 2008), the Colorado Supreme Court remanded the putative class action back to the trial court after determining mat absent a showing of fraudulent concealment, the statute of limitations would accrue when the payment is due not when the party should have discovered the existence of the cause of action. On remand, the trial court is faced with a slightly revised putative class of leasehold and overriding royalty interest owners whose royalties were calculated during the period January 1, 1986 through December 1, 1997 using the netback methodology to deduct post-production costs in order to make the natural gas marketable. The trial court issues an extensive ruling covering not only the statute of limitations/fraudulent concealment issue but all of the elements required to certify a class under C.R.C.P. 23. It certifies the class after finding mat the defendant actively attempted to conceal from the class members its use of the netback methodology to lower the amount of royalty paid. Held: affirmed. While the plaintiff bears the burden of proof to show mat all of the elements of C.R.C.P. 23 have been met, Colorado takes a liberal construction to C.R.C.P. 23 so as to favor class certification. The Court of Appeals determines that the putative class easily meets the numerosity requirement rejecting BP's claims that since the netback methodology was implemented over a period of time following natural gas price deregulation, it cannot determine the number of individuals who would be in the class.
