A recent ruling by a federal appeals court means one of two lawsuits filed by a trucking company against truck stop giant Pilot Flying J may be returning to federal court.
The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in November 2016 on the civil suit brought by Wright Transportation against Pilot alleging the company defrauded them out of monies owed to the trucking company based on the truck stop chain’s diesel fuel rebate program. According to the ruling, the lawsuit should be tried in federal court rather than at state court.
