Judge rules utility illegally raised Oklahomans' gas bills after 2021 storm
Original: Judge finds company illegally hiked Oklahomans' gas bills in 2021 winter storm
An Oklahoma judge has found that a gas company unlawfully increased customers' bills in the aftermath of the February 2021 winter storm that gripped the state. The ruling means the utility's rate hike during the deep freeze was illegal, and it could force the company to refund customers or face other penalties over charges tied to the storm's soaring natural gas costs.
Why now: The ruling directly affects Oklahomans who paid inflated gas bills during and after the 2021 winter storm, raising the prospect of refunds.
