What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if ATFC (presumably All Team Funding Corp) is involved in a suit or proceeding, the USER (likely the franchisee) has specific obligations. The USER must promptly provide All Team with copies of every summons, subpoena, process, notice, or order for appearance related to the suit or proceeding.
Furthermore, the USER is required to cooperate with All Team's attorneys and insurance carriers in the defense of the suit or proceeding. This cooperation likely includes providing information, documentation, and potentially testimony as needed to assist in the defense.
This requirement ensures that All Team is kept fully informed of any legal actions that could affect the company and that the franchisee actively supports All Team's defense efforts. Failure to comply with these requirements could potentially lead to legal or financial repercussions for the franchisee, as it is a contractual obligation under the franchise agreement.
