Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES The Company’s total income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2019 differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax loss due primarily to the impact of permanent differences between book and tax loss at March 31, 2019. Due to a variety of factors, including the Company’s significant net income in 2017 and 2018, the Company’s federal valuation allowance and a portion of the Company’s state valuation allowance were reversed at December 31, 2018 as the deferred tax assets were determined to be more likely than not to be utilized. As a portion of the Company’s state net operating loss carryforwards are not expected to be utilized before expiration, a valuation allowance will continue to be recognized until the state deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be utilized. The Company’s deferred tax assets exceeded its deferred tax liabilities at March 31, 2018 due to the deferred tax assets generated by full-cost ceiling impairment charges in prior periods. The Company established a valuation allowance against most of the deferred tax assets beginning in the third quarter of 2015 and retained a full valuation allowance at March 31, 2018 due to uncertainties regarding the future realization of its deferred tax assets.
