In a very exceptional criminal case<br \/>\n  issue, the Arnhem-Leeuwarden Court of Appeal (ECLI:NL:GHARL:2019:11154)<br \/>\n  recently ruled that one of the directors of a (former)<br \/>\n  franchisor of a catering formula should serve a prison sentence<br \/>\n  sentence of four years and nine months and a fine<br \/>\n  pay more than seven million euros.<br \/>\n    \n<\/p>\n<p>\n    <b>Background<\/b><br \/>\n    \n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The director of the franchisor is (partly) suspected that he<br \/>\n  operated for various franchisees. For the purposes of collecting the<br \/>\n  franchise fees, the franchisor had entered into collection contracts with<br \/>\n  the couch. By means of these collection contracts, amounts (fees)<br \/>\n  are collected. However, the bills turned out not to belong to<br \/>\n  franchisees. An amount to be collected by the franchisor then became<br \/>\n  for example by the bank, in anticipation of the success of the collection or on<br \/>\n  advance basis, deposited into one of the accounts. Meanwhile, these<br \/>\n  amounts passed on or withdrawn by the franchisor. In a devious way<br \/>\n  an attempt has been made to disguise this by the director of the franchisor.<br \/>\n  This created an illegal source of income.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The bank filed a report in September 2011 in connection with these actions<br \/>\n  against the director of the franchisor for suspected fraud<br \/>\n  act when using these direct debit contracts with which the bank provides<br \/>\n  more than an amount of approximately \u20ac 11 million would have been damaged.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n    <b>Judicial judgment<\/b><br \/>\n    \n<\/p>\n<p>\n  In the first instance, the court had imposed an unconditional prison sentence<br \/>\n  of four years. The director subsequently appealed<br \/>\n  the verdict. On appeal, the Court of Appeal also finds the director<br \/>\n  guilty and imposes even a higher sentence than the court. It<br \/>\n  The court sentenced the suspect to four years and nine months<br \/>\n  unconditional imprisonment; a disqualification from the right of<br \/>\n  statutory director for nine years and nine months and an obligation<br \/>\n  for compensation of damage of \u20ac 7,019,544.79.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n    <b>Conclusion<\/b><br \/>\n    \n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Although the above concerns an almost unique situation, there are<br \/>\n  franchisors who don&#8217;t always color within the lines. In the present<br \/>\n  issue showed that the franchisees who were affiliated with the formula<br \/>\n  were not involved in the aforementioned collection fraud. However, it may be obvious<br \/>\n  be that such behavior of the franchisor can cause enormous reputational damage<br \/>\n  to affiliated franchisees, but also to the franchise industry<br \/>\n  in general, with all its consequences. Do you suspect fraud in the<br \/>\n  organization of your franchisor and do you have advice in such a case<br \/>\n  need, please give us a call.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; outline: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; color: #545454; font-family: Ubuntu, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; background-color: #ffffff;\"><\/p>\n<p>mr.
