Quiznos Franchisees Have Their Class Action Suit Dismissed

A group of Quiznos franchisees had their lawsuit against the parent company dismissed by the United States District Court for the District of Colorado.

The judge ruled that the franchisees could not bring the lawsuit as a class action because their signed franchise agreement specifically bared them from bring a class action suit.

The lawsuit alleges that the franchisees were charged between $20,000 and $25,000 for each sub shop, but ultimately were never given permission to open a shop.

Quiznos counters that, under the contract Quiznos requires, a franchisee must open a shop within one year of signing the contract otherwise they loose both their money and the right to open a shop.
