   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Bye and Smith, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case - contracts. Parties' agreement concerning termination was
   ambiguous and Swift's claim for breach of contract cannot be resolved as
   a matter of law; neither party produced conclusive evidence that dictates
   the acceptance of their interpretation of the provision, and the district
   court erred in defendants' motion for summary judgment; district court
   did not err in granting summary judgment for Swift on defendants'
   counterclaim for breach of contract; nor did the court err in granting Swift
   summary judgment on defendants' counterclaims under the Minnesota
   Consumer Fraud Act.
