Mr. Howard's Application for a Chrysler Franchise
In obtaining approval by Chrysler of Mr. Howard and
petitioner as a dealer candidate, petitioner and Mr. Howard's
credentials and plans were considered on their own merit.
The procedure for obtaining Chrysler's approval as a new
dealer candidate is a lengthy and detailed one. When applying as
a dealer candidate, petitioner and Mr. Howard were required to
provide detailed information about their respective backgrounds
in the automobile sales industry, financing information, detailed
dealership plans, and numerous other documents. Mr. Howard and
the employees and agents of petitioner spent several weeks

automobile dealership manager and petitioner's demonstrated
performance in representing other manufacturers resulted in
petitioner's approval by Chrysler.
Petitioner's Jeep-Eagle franchise would terminate by its
nonperformance of the franchise terms, by voluntary termination
