Marlowe v. Redi-National Pest Eliminators, Inc.
Marlowe v. Redi-National Pest Eliminators, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
Plaintiff brought this action to rescind a franchise agreement. The court granted defendant’s motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction, on the basis of this provision in the contract:
“Any action brought to enforce any right under this Agreement shall be brought in the Federal District or Superior Court in King County, Washington.”
Assuming that that provision applies to this case,
Reversed and remanded.
Plaintiff is not seeking “to enforce any right under [the] agreement”; he seeks to rescind it.
