Rowe v. Amoco Oil Co., 723 F.2d 911, CCH Trade Cases 65,739 (6th Cir. 11-8-83)
Summary judgment for franchisor affirmed. The parties had executed a cancellation agreement. Franchisee was given a Summary Statement and vacated the premises one month later. Franchisee did not give any notice that he revoked the cancellation agreement prior to filing this action seven months later. Held that the grounds for termination specified in § 2802(b)(2) were alternate grounds and that each subpart provided an independent basis for termination. The court found that the franchisor satisfied the requirements of this section for termination and rejected franchisee's assertion of duress, finding that since franchisee failed to repudiate within seven days, termination was proper.
