What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Crisp & Green Franchise Disclosure Document, each provision within the Wisconsin addendum becomes effective only if the jurisdictional requirements of the Wisconsin Franchise Law, along with its associated rules and regulations, are independently satisfied. This effectiveness is determined without relying on the addendum itself.
In simpler terms, for any specific part of the Wisconsin addendum to apply, the situation must already fall under the legal scope defined by Wisconsin's franchise laws, irrespective of what the addendum states. This means the addendum's provisions don't create new legal grounds for franchisees but rather clarify or modify how the standard franchise agreement interacts with existing Wisconsin law.
This condition ensures that the addendum works in harmony with Wisconsin law, rather than trying to override or circumvent it. It protects both Crisp & Green and its franchisees by ensuring compliance with state regulations. Prospective franchisees should consult with a legal expert in Wisconsin franchise law to fully understand how these jurisdictional requirements might affect their specific circumstances.
