Re:Tesla prevails in top Massachusetts court over direct sales by twoodfin on Tuesday September 16, 2014 @02:50PM (#8326268)
I'd only dissent so far as I'm unconvinced that the Court wouldn't have reached a different opinion if, say, some newly independent spinoff brand of GM was muscling in on its parent company's dealers by trying to sell directly to consumers. That is, I am suspicious it helped that Tesla had the green halo it does.

If the law is producing bad outcomes, the legislature should face pressure to change the law. We shouldn't rely on the Court to stretch as far as it can to get the "right" result.

But JackC's summary of the opinion makes a reasonable case that the standing issue was properly decided.
