1 with it all and put - is there?
2 MR. LIGHTY: Object to the form, side-bar
3 too.
4 A I used the resources that were available to me
5 to write my report.
6 Q Now then, Page 18, last paragraph, you write
7 that the store operator in question is not an agent of
8 IDQ or ADQ because in a franchise license relationship,
9 the business is independently owned, but operates under
10 a license agreement.
11 Is that your opinion?
12 A Uh-huh, yes.
13 Q Do you have any case law to back that up?
14 A No, I have -- I have what I know and what
15 research I did.
16 Q Is there a time when the actions of the
17 franchisor and the franchisee go outside the licensing
18 agreement that can make them have an agency
19 relationship?
20 MR. LIGHTY: Object to the form.
21 A I don't know.
22 Q Now, you will agree that American Dairy Queen
23 could control the size, shape, and appearance of the
24 franchisees' establishment, right?
25 A Yes.
