What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Caring Transitions' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee acknowledges that violating the terms of Article 15 would cause irreparable harm to Caring Transitions. As a result, the franchisee consents to the issuance of an injunction to prevent any conduct that violates Article 15.
This means that if a Caring Transitions franchisee breaches any part of Article 15 in the franchise agreement, Caring Transitions can seek a court order (injunction) to immediately stop the franchisee's actions. The franchisee agrees in advance to this process.
Furthermore, the franchisee also agrees to cover all court costs and reasonable attorney's fees that Caring Transitions incurs while obtaining the injunction. This could potentially create a significant financial burden for the franchisee in addition to the business disruption caused by the injunction.
