The following describes a government action that has been resolved by either a settlement or a decision by a court or administrative agency. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below.
On September 12, 2017 the Attorney General of Texas filed an application for temporary and permanent injunction against Encinal Fuel, LLC, doing business as Encinal Fuel Stop. Charges filed allege the business is in violation of law prohibiting price gouging during a disaster declared by the Governor. The State alleges the business charged consumers up to $9.99 per gallon of unleaded regular gasoline fuel, thus taking advantage of Hurricane Harvey disaster victims.
On May 16, 2019 Encinal Fuel entered into an Agreed Final Judgement and Permanent Injunction to settle the charges. Under the agreement, Encinal Fuel must pay $17,500 in civil restitution to refund Texans who were charged up to $9.99 a gallon for gas from August 31- September 3, 2017.
