“Tesla’s company-owned stores have required special exemption from decades-old dealer franchise laws,” said stock research firm JMP in a report. JMP adjusted its price estimate for Tesla to $406.00 from $319.88 per share. “While Tesla will likely assert that it indeed will have sufficient resources to maintain the consumer safety of the fleet, we expect a number of legal challenges to this move.”

What form those legal challenges would take is unclear.
