	FedEx Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The company was founded as Federal Express in 1971 by former U.S. Marine Frederick W. Smith in Little Rock, Arkansas, but moved to Memphis, Tennessee in 1973 after Little Rock airport officials would not agree to provide facilities for the fledgling airline.
		Federal Express pioneered use of the spoke-hub distribution paradigm in air freight, which enabled it to become a world leader in its field.
		The "Federal Express" name was eliminated entirely in 2000, when FDX Corporation changed its name to FedEx Corporation.

	Shubert v. Federal Express Corp.
		The trial court granted Federal Express's motion to dismiss, which was predicated on sections 2-615 and 2-619(a)(9) of the Illinois Code of Civil Procedure (735 ILCS 5/2-615, 2-619(a)(9) (West 1996)), and upon the contention that plaintiff's claims were preempted by federal statute.
		The complaint further alleged that Federal Express had not amended the Service Guide between November 1, 1996, and June 30, 1997, to assess a fuel surcharge, and receipt of the invoice in April 1997 was plaintiff's first notice that Federal Express was imposing a fuel surcharge.
		In its motion to dismiss, Federal Express contended that Counts I and II of the complaint failed to state a cause of action, that the Service Guide had been amended prior to imposition of the surcharge, and that plaintiff's claims were preempted by the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 (ADA) (49 U.S.C. 41713(b)(1)).

		One exception applied by federal courts is the "artful pleading" doctrine, "in which the court seeks to evaluate a plaintiff's motive for [his] failure to plead a federal cause of action." Aaron v.
		Many federal courts have found that the preemption provision of the ADA creates no private right of action, and this court is aware of no decision to the contrary.

	Federal Express The Full Story
		Federal Express's use of a corporate intranet is part of a corporatewide effort to move toward a paper-free environment, which will allow the company to save money and time, and communicate up-to-date information.
		Federal Express has already discovered the benefits of their intranet, including the affordability and speed of setting it up because the hardware and networking were already in place.

	Fred Smith - Federal Express Renegade
		He had a couple of purple, orange and white Federal Express jets, a mini-size corporate staff but he didn't yet have the start-up capital he needed, nor the market data to lure investors to his door.
		Confident that he could nightly fill his proposed fleet of 25 Federal Express jets, the annual revenue would be almost $67 million, leaving a gross profit before taxes of almost $43 million.
		The essence of Federal Express's success could be said that Fred Smith was/is a brilliant guy, willing to risk his own money along with the ability and personal drive to run a company.

	MIT in debt $65,000 to FedEx

		Federal Express will become entangled in the political and legal dispute over the proposed conversion of MCAS El Toro to a commercial airport.
		Federal Express should table any plans to use El Toro until the Department of Navy has completed its shutdown, the county has completed an environmental impact report which is acceptable to the courts, and the people of Orange County have had an opportunity to choose between an airport and non-aviation alternatives for the land.
		I believe the Federal Express Corporation should re-examine their support of such a divisive and volatile issue which is currently consuming Orange County.
