Ray Anderson, Inc. v. Buck's, Inc.

Daugherty, District Judge.

In this declaratory judgment action, the district court for Douglas County determined that a contract between Ray Anderson, Inc. (Anderson), and Buck's, Inc., to supply "BP-branded" motor fuel did not prevent Anderson from contracting with a competitor, Western Oil, Inc., to rebrand fuel sold at some of Anderson's facilities. The court further found that Buck's held a unilateral right to terminate the fuel supply agreement. Upon our de novo review, we reach the same conclusion. Therefore, we affirm.
