What state?

I don't think it's 4-0 anymore. Without seeing the specific language, I'm going with person B also.

It is definitely B. The argument that an instrument that specifically includes minerals and is silent on royalty somehow constitutes a reservation of royalty rights is completely absurd. B needs to get a lawyer right now.

It's like selling a lot with a house and a pool then saying the new owner can't swim there because the deed didn't specifically include the pool water.

If Person A's attorney practices mineral rights law in Louisiana they probably should think about quitting. Also, person B (assuming LA) is due the royalty payments back to the time of sale and can claim said payments for a period of up to three years.
