Douglas v. Chevron U.S.A., Inc., 1988 U. S. Dist. LEXIS 15828, 15837 (D. Md. 12-7-88)

Judgment for franchisor. Franchisee admitted he was delinquent in rent payments and that he could have timely cured the delinquent payments. The court rejected franchisee's argument that franchisor's refusal to accept his personal check was arbitrary because his notice to pay said nothing about certified funds.
