Terms Used In Missouri Laws 407.1323

  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.
  • State: when applied to any of the United States, includes the District of Columbia and the territories, and the words "United States" includes such district and territories. See Missouri Laws 1.020

3. Sales of RVs by manufacturers or distributors shall be in accordance with published prices, charges and terms of sale in effect at any given time. The manufacturer will sell products on the same basis, with respect to all rebates, discounts and programs, to all competing dealers similarly situated.

4. No manufacturer, directly or through any officer, agent or employee, may terminate an RV dealer agreement without good cause. The burden of showing good cause is on the manufacturer. Prior to the expiration of a dealer agreement, both parties shall enter into negotiations for renewal of the dealer agreement in good faith, and neither will arbitrarily require a substantial change in competitive circumstances. When taking on a competing manufacturer’s lines, a dealer must notify existing manufacturers in writing, at least thirty days prior to entering into such an agreement, to sell the same type of recreational vehicle.
