Frager v. Indianapolis Colts, Inc.

Civil Court
Conversion
Citation
Case Number: 
No. 16-4183
Decision Date: 
June 22, 2017
Federal District: 
S.D. Ind., Indianapolis Div.
Holding: 
Affirmed

Dist. Ct. did not err in dismissing plaintiff’s conversion action, alleging that defendant-professional football team improperly refused to renew 94 season tickets that plaintiff had purchased from third-parties, and therefore, according to plaintiff, defendant had converted said tickets without compensating him. Defendant’s contract with purchasers of said tickets indicated that defendant had reserved right to reject any order, transfer or renewal of its tickets. Thus, although plaintiff had expectation that defendant would renew said tickets, plaintiff had no right to said renewal because defendant had not sold said right to anyone.
