Description
The plaintiff is a distributor of petroleum
products in Hartford County. The defendants are
proprietors of a gasoline service station in
Plainville. The plaintiff sued the defendants
for loss of profits resulting from an admitted
breach of contract by the defendants. Judgment
was for the plaintiff and the defendants have
appealed. These further facts appear in the finding, which
is not subject to correction: Prior to May 31,
1947, the defendants acquired a piece of land in
Plainville upon which they desired to erect and
operate a gasoline service station. A
representative of the plaintiff aided them in
obtaining the necessary materials and permits. On
the above date, the parties executed an exclusive
sales contract whereby the defendants agreed to
purchase from the plaintiff and it agreed to
furnish, at prices to be determined as specified,
the entire supply of gasoline and oils to be used
or sold at the gasoline station. From September
11, 1947, to September 1, 1948, the plaintiff
delivered to the defendants gasoline, motor oil
and grease, which they sold exclusively in
accordance with the contract. On September 1 the
defendants notified the plaintiff that they would
no longer handle its products and that it should
make no more deliveries. When the defendants thus
terminated the contract, it had three years and
nine months to run. The plaintiff has been at all
times ready, willing and able to continue
performance of its part under the contract. The
plaintiff's gasoline was brought into Connecticut
from New Jersey.
