In Minnesota, can a Best Brains franchisee consent to the franchisor obtaining injunctive relief?

According to Best Brains' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee in Minnesota cannot consent to the franchisor obtaining injunctive relief. However, the FDD states that Best Brains may seek injunctive relief in Minnesota. This information is found within the Minnesota Addendum to the Disclosure Document.

This means that while Best Brains retains the right to pursue injunctive relief against a franchisee in Minnesota, the franchisee cannot be compelled to agree in advance to such an action. This provision aims to protect the franchisee's rights and ensure they are not forced into a disadvantageous legal position.

This type of restriction is not uncommon in franchise agreements, as many states have laws in place to protect franchisees from overreaching terms imposed by franchisors. Prospective Best Brains franchisees in Minnesota should be aware of this protection, as it ensures they cannot be forced to consent to injunctive relief, maintaining their legal rights and options in case of a dispute.
