   Hauser, Inc.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-1671
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Shepherd, 
   Circuit Judge] 
   Civil case - Minnesota Termination of Sales Representative Act. The Act, 
   as amended in 2014, applies to the parties' contractual relationship, and 
   the district court erred in finding the Act did not apply because the 
   parties' agreement was not "renewed" on or after the effective date of the 
   Act; because plaintiff continued to solicit orders with defendant's 
   consent or acquiescence after the effective date, the parties' agreement 
   was, under Minnesota law, "renewed," and the Act applied to the agreement; 
   reversed and remanded to the district court for a ruling as to whether 
   defendant had good cause and otherwise violated the Act by terminating the 
   parties' agreement. Chief Judge Smith, dissenting.
