Description
A franchisee of a major do-it-yourself moving company claims that the company and its subsidiaries fraudulently induced him to surrender his service station and enter into a new lease and franchise agreement under which the company raised his rent to a level that made it impossible for him to continue in business. He seeks damages for violations of both federal and state antitrust laws, for violation of Mississippis franchise statute, and for fraud and breach of fiduciary duty under the common law of Mississippi. The district court entered summary judgment in favor of the defendants on all claims. We affirm as to the antitrust and franchise-statute claims, but, finding that the common law claims turn on disputed material issues of fact, we remand those claims for trial.
