The plaintiffs in this “distributor termination” case, a franchised tractor dealership and its new owners, appeal a final order of the district court granting summary judgment in favor of the defendant franchisor and other corporate and individual defendants on plaintiffs’ federal antitrust claims. The appealed from order also dismissed plaintiffs’ state common law breach of contract and tort claims without prejudice.
We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
