Ten dairy farmers accuse Athens Milk Sales of mis management and seek a court ordered receivership to protect minority rights. The brief cites $20,000 invested without real estate title, at least $5,760 paid plus deductions, improper director elections, unnotified by law changes, and expelled members not hearing charges.
