Tulowitzki v. Atlantic Richfield Company

HERRMANN, Chief Justice:

The plaintiff, Richard C. Tulowitzki, appeals the Chancery Court’s decision that the relationship between Tulowitzki and the defendant Atlantic Richfield Company was not a “franchise” under Delaware’s Franchise Security Law, 6 Del.C. § 2551 et seq., or under the developing franchise case law; and that the vapor recovery equipment agreement that Atlantic required plaintiff to sign as part of a lease renewal was neither unconscionable nor in violation of the Delaware Retail Sales of Motor Fuel Law, 6 Del.C. Ch. 29.
