   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-3490
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Murphy and Benton, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Contracts. For the court's earlier opinion in the case, see 
   Watkins Inc. v. Chilkoot Distrib., Inc., 655 F3d 802 (8th Cir. 2011). The 
   district court did not err in determining that Watkins' reclassification 
   of a distributor known as the Lambert Group from sales associate to 
   manufacturer's representative was not prohibited by either of the 
   contracts between Watkins and Chilkoot and was not a breach of the 
   contracts nor a breach of the implied convenant of good faith and fair 
   dealing; district court did not err in dismissing counterclaims for 
   equitable relief as equitable relief in unavailable under Minnesota law 
   where, as here, the rights of the parties are governed by a valid 
   contract.
