B. GROUNDS FOR NONRENEWAL  :  7. § 2802(b)(3)(A) Failure to agree to changes or additions to the franchise made in good faith and the normal course of business
  • Ross [I] v. Shell Oil Company, CCH BFG Para. 7991 (D.Conn. 4-8-83); aff'd, 742 F.2d 1432 (2d Cir. 11-16-83) (Table); No. H-82-1088 (D. Conn. 7-12-83) Slip Opinion

    Held this section provided valid grounds for nonrenewal when parties were unable to agree on the increase in monthly rent and the procedure for assigning the franchise to franchisee's corporation. Found evidence unrefuted that franchisor's policies were arrived at in the normal course of business and applied in a nondiscriminatory manner.
