J.J. BROOKSBANK CO. V. BUDGET RENT-A-CAR CORP.
337 N.W.2d 372 (Minn. 1983)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over the terms of a licensing agreement.
Brooksbank (P) and Budget (D) each sought review of an order, which held that P was entitled
to receive a 10 percent discount on the cost of reservations.
FACTS: J.J. (P) entered into a contract with Budget (D). The provisions of that agreement
outlined the arrangement for allocating reservation system obligations. The reservation
system had changed and P brought a declaratory action to determine the extent of its
obligations under the 1962 licensing agreement. D wanted to install a central reservation
system in order to better service its customers. P insisted that it should receive all
reservations from any of D's reservations offices. D contends that its obligation to provide
free reservations was limited to the old system and that obligation was excused by the
advance of technology. The trial court split the baby and gave P a minor reduction in fees
for the new system. Both P and D appealed.
