AMF, INC. V. McDONALD'S CORP.
536 F.2d 1167 (1976)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over the purchase cancellation of a cash register order. AMF (P) sought review of a decision, which dismissed P's complaints McDonald's (D) regarding a contract for the purchase of cash registers.
FACTS: AMF (P) sold computerized cash registers and developed a new unit in breadboard and used that unit to Beta site at a McDonald's (D) restaurant. P sold the unit to D for $20,000. The unit was installed in April of 1968, and paid for on January 3, 1969. On August 29, 1968 D ordered 16 more units. D ordered 7 more units in late January, 1969. The Beta unit caused many problems in actual operation and it was ordered to be removed in late April, 1969. The remaining ordered units were supposed to be delivered and installed from February until June 1969. That was pushed back by P to January, 1970. A March 18, 1969 meeting resulted in D's request to formulate performance standards for the units and pending mutual agreement on the performance standards D wanted to hold up production of the 23 units. P agreed. The standards were presented on May 1st and the parties could not agree. D cancelled the orders because P could never produce a working unit. P sued D and D won the verdict under 2-609, 2-610, and 2-711. P appealed.
