And why you should care
‍In 1984, the Chevron case arose after the EPA defined all plant equipment as a single pollution "source" under the Clean Air Act, easing emissions rules. The NRDC (The Natural Resources Defense Council) sued, arguing it weakened environmental laws.
The court believed that federal agencies, equipped with expertise in their respective areas, were better positioned to handle ambiguities in the law than the court.Â
Loper Bright is a herring fish company located on the east coast. The department of commerce required Loper Bright to pay for a federal monitor to be on the boat to make sure they didn’t overfish. They were upset because it was costing them 700$ per day. They sued the department of commerce claiming that that the right to make that law wasn't give to them by congress.
The district court ruled the following:

After Loper lost they appealed to the supreme court. The supreme court ruled in their favor saying, “ Chevron is overruled. Courts must exercise their independent judgment in deciding whether an agency has acted within its statutory”. In short, this means federal agencies can’t fill in the gray with their own ideas.Â
It seems certain that government agencies will face an onslaught of legal battles since Chevron has been overturned. Industries that are highly regulated are most likely to pushback. See screenshot for agencies that will be hit the hardest:Â

In my opinion, the government has too many regulations put in place by unelected officials. The vast majority of these regulations are unfair to businesses and hurt the American people. Chevron will curtain the ability of federal agencies to make unfair laws.Â

You only pay for what you use — no seat fees and no modules you don't need. Pricing is a monthly platform fee plus usage on documents processed, ACH payments, mailed checks, and the workflows you turn on. We size it to your actual monthly close so it scales with the work, not your headcount.
A smaller operator running 25 documents, 10 ACH payments, and 2 mailed checks a month would be priced on that exact volume. A larger operator at 100 documents, 50 ACH payments, and 10 checks pays predictably more. You always know what you're spending because it tracks the actual close.
Joltly connects directly to QuickBooks and Quorum On-Demand Accounting, and supports file-based export workflows for systems like PakEnergy and Integra. It manages accounts, items, vendors, partner mappings, JIB clearing, revenue liabilities, and netting accounts inside your existing setup.
Both sides of settlement. On expenses: invoice review, GL coding, approvals, JIB creation, ACH and check payments. On revenue: statement OCR, partner distributions, remittance emails, and netting between JIB receivables and revenue payouts — so your team replaces spreadsheet work and email follow-up during close.
Yes. Your wells, partners, revenue interests, GL mappings, approval flow, export formats, and partner-facing statements are configured per operator. Most customers go live on their existing chart of accounts and ERP setup — no rebuild required.
