I. PREEMPTION OF STATE LAW - § 2806(a)
  • Smoot v. Mobil Oil Corporation, 722 F. Supp. 849 (D. Mass. 8-28-89)

    Summary judgment for franchisor. The presumption that Congress acts intentionally in including or omitting duty of good faith sections of the PMPA and the disparate language of the PMPA indicate that the court may not imply a duty of good faith in addition to the express requirements of this section.
