Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit December 19, 1985, 85-5240 (Centre Beverage Company, Inc. v. Miller Brewing Company)

OPINION OF THE COURT

GIBBONS, Circuit Judge:

At issue on this appeal is whether Pa. Stat.Ann. tit. 47, § 4-431(d)(l) (Purdon Supp.1984-1985), a 1980 amendment to the Pennsylvania Liquor Code requiring “good cause” before a beer manufacturer can terminate an agreement with a distributor, applies retroactively to distributorship agreements entered into prior to the effective date of the amendment.
