Gibsons' legal department is tougher than most. They pin you down with tight contract and they beat the hell out of you if you fail to hold up your end ![Angry >:(](https://bassoutpost.com/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

That's what I've heard, too. But if a retailer isn't paying his bills -- assuming that's the case here -- then he'll eventually suffer the consequences.
I did look up the text of that Wisconsin statute. It protects dealerships from arbitrary cancellations by manufacturers. A dealership has to be informed of a deficiency (financial or otherwise) and given time to correct it, and if it's corrected in time, then a factory can't dump the dealer. This might help the store in its fight against Gibson. Just depends on exactly what happened.
