What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Crisp & Green Franchise Disclosure Document, the section regarding injunctive relief is addressed in an addendum for franchises sold in New York. Specifically, the addendum states that the following sentence is added to the end of Section 18.04 of the Franchise Agreement: "Franchisor's right to obtain injunctive relief exists only after proper proofs are made and the appropriate authority has granted such relief."
This means that for Crisp & Green franchises operating in New York, the franchisor's ability to seek injunctive relief (a court order to stop certain actions by the franchisee) is subject to the condition that they must first provide sufficient evidence and obtain approval from the relevant legal authority. This provision could offer some protection to franchisees in New York by ensuring that Crisp & Green cannot obtain an injunction without proper justification and legal oversight.
It is important to note that this specific condition applies only to Crisp & Green franchises in New York due to the addendum. Franchisees in other states may be subject to different terms regarding injunctive relief as outlined in their respective franchise agreements and any applicable state-specific addenda.
