Franchise relationship law question Forum

[FineGentleman]

Some guy bought a franchise in 2012 for a term of 5 years. Since then in 2013, there is a new owner for the guy's state. The franchisor, with its new owner, sent the guy a new franchise with different terms. Does this franchisor have the right to cancel and change the former agreement when the guy (franchisee) still has a good 3-4 years of his term left?

I would appreciate references to specific code and cases.

Are you being serious? Contact an actual attorney, not a bunch of law students and 0Ls. WTF, dude.

Screw law school, I'll just post all my clients' questions on TLS

To be fair, some of us are actual attorneys, but expecting free legal advice on the interwebs is misguided for a litany of reasons.

I suggest starting with 1 U.S.C. § 1 and working forward from there. Hope this helps!
