Suit Growing Out Of Failure To Deliver Ford Auto Is Dismissed
A Richmond circuit judge dismissed Ford Motor Company as a defendant in a case by Washington patent attorney Henry G. Bartsch who claimed a contract for a Ford sedan or coupe in October 1945. The judge ruled Bartsch contracted with Universal Motor Company Inc of Richmond, not Ford, and that damages for non delivery should be sought in a court of law. Bartsch deposited $25 and was later told delivery would be 30 to 60 days, but was advised a car could not be delivered under any circumstances.
