Description
This dispute arises out of a decision by the Burger King Corporation ("BKC") to license the opening of a competing Burger King(TM) restaurant near two existing Burger King(TM) restaurants operated by C.R. Weaver ("Weaver"). In response to the perceived encroachment, Weaver stopped making his rent and royalty payments to BKC. After settlement Discussions failed, BKC sued to recover the amounts it was due under the franchise agreements and Weaver counterclaimed on a variety of grounds. The District Court for the Southern District of Florida granted summary judgment to BKC on all of Weaver's counterclaims, as well as on BKC's claims for breach of contract and trademark infringement. We affirm.
