Description
Plaintiffs-appellants, United Wholesale Liquor Company (United) and Michael J. Chiordi, appeal from the judgment of the district court granting summary judgment in favor of defendants-appellees, Brown-Forman Distillers Corporation (Brown-Forman) and Quality Import Company (Quality), on the choice of law provision that Kentucky and not New Mexico law is controlling in this case. Brown-Forman and Quality cross-appeal the trial court's judgment granting partial summary judgment in favor of United on the issue of liability that Brown-Forman's decision to terminate United as its distributor did not constitute "good cause" under the New Mexico Alcohol Beverage Franchise Act (Franchise Act), NMSA 1978, Sections 60-8A-7 to -11 (Repl. Pamp. 1987), if New Mexico law is applicable to this dispute. Since we affirm the district court on the choice of law question, we need not decide whether Brown-Forman's termination of United fell within the purview of NMSA 1978, Sections 60-8A-7 and -8.
