ROLEC, INC. v. FINLAY HYDRASCREEN USA, INC.

Civil No. 95-203-P-H.

917 F.Supp. 67 (1996)

ROLEC, INC., Plaintiff, v. FINLAY HYDRASCREEN USA, INC., Defendant.

United States District Court, D. Maine.

February 21, 1996.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John S. Campbell, Poulos & Campbell, Portland, ME, for Plaintiff.

Jerrol M. Crouter, Deirdre M. Smith, Drummond, Woodson & MacMahon, Portland, ME, for Defendant.

ORDER ON DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS COUNT II

HORNBY, District Judge.

The issue in this case is whether Maine's recently enacted Franchise Laws for Power Equipment, Machinery and Appliances can constitutionally be applied to a franchise agreement already in effect before the law was enacted. I conclude that applying the law retroactively in this case would be unconstitutional. I therefore GRANT the motion to dismiss Count II.
