BC Tire Corp. v. GTE Directories Corp.

Court of Appeals of Washington

Decided December 29, 1986No. 16145-8-IPublishedCited by 23 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtPekelis, J.

Appellant BC Tire Corporation brought this action against GTE Directories Corporation for breach of contract and negligence due to GTE's failure to publish a certain advertisement in the yellow pages of the Everett telephone directory. The trial court granted GTE's motion for summary judgment and dismissed the action. On appeal, BC Tire argues that an exclusionary clause contained in the application for advertising is unconscionable, and that even if the exclusionary clause is effective, GTE is nonetheless liable for negligence. We affirm.
