Fact Pattern 19-1 Joan Decides to Enter into a Franchise Agreement with XYZ

Fact Pattern 19-1
Joan decides to enter into a franchise agreement with XYZ Burgers to sell their burgers in her town. The franchise agreement did not prohibit XYZ Burgers from granting other franchises in the area, but that did not concern Joan because she thought XYZ Burgers would treat her fairly. She did not bother to read the franchise papers, contracts, and disclosures she was provided. Joan's business went very well for the six months. Then, however, another XYZ Burgers franchise opened just down the street from Joan's restaurant. She was very upset and called XYZ Burgers to complain. The CEO brushed off her concerns and told her that there was enough business for everyone. Joan, however, is interested in suing XYZ Burgers.
