6th Circuit Panel Reverses Preliminary Injunction In Beer Distributor, Brewer Row

Mealey's (June 27, 2017, 3:23 PM EDT) -- CINCINNATI — A Sixth Circuit U.S Court of Appeals panel on June 26 reversed an Ohio judge’s grant of a preliminary injunction in a franchise agreement dispute between a beer distributor and brewing companies, saying the judge abused his discretion in granting the injunction because the sole basis on which the plaintiff intends to succeed at trial is without legal support (Southern Glazer’s Distributors of Ohio, LLC v. The Great Lakes Brewing Co., et al., No. 16-4235, 6th Cir., 2017 U.S. App. LEXIS 11306)....
