Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. v. Lockheed Martin Corp.

<> Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. v. Lockheed Martin Corp. - 7/30/15. In the U.S. Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit, Case No. 14-4078. In this unpublished suit between responsible parties involving the Airdock, a massive facility built in Akron, Ohio in 1929 to manufacture and house blimps. 
     In conclusion, we hold that Lockheed's claim in the Airdock Litigation arose from preclosing operations of the Airdock and thus falls outside Lockheed's indemnification obligations under § 6.19.2 of the Asset Purchase Agreement. We therefore affirm the district court's judgment.
