The judge has informed the government that they can't just shut down a leasehold (called a "permit") without some evidence that the lessee has violated some term in the lease.
That's pretty much covered in Law 101. It's amplified in later courses but anyone who did first semester law should know that one.

When it comes to wells on lands owned by states or private individuals it's more proper to speak of "regulation", but the USSC has continually ruled over the years that at some point regulation can and does turn into a "taking" so the government can't just regulate something to the point where it has no economic value. NOTE: these cases are all very complex so you need to study them closely.
‘Restrictions on new oil and gas drilling could soon spread from the Gulf of Mexico to onshore operations.’

With Obama’s energy policies we will soon be shivering or sweltering in our darkened homes and those few of us still with jobs may not be able to afford driving to work. Obama’s socialism will give us the standard of living our grandparents enjoyed in about 1900 where having cold running water and a flush toilet in your home and a few bare electric lights were the lap of luxury.
here in PA where we have a LOT of shale gas, the local Commies are running around throwing everything possible against the wall to see if they can shut it down. (I suspect though they will fail because the local Democrat political class is slobbering all over themselves at the thought of all that new revenue they can tax and spend)
Failing at the local level would of course not stop Emperor Obama (though he’d likely have to throw a bailout package at Fast Eddie Rendell to buy his silence)
Obama: equal-opportunity industry destroyer.
