COVENANTS NOT TO COMPETE: A STATE-BY-STATE SURVEY, SEVENTH EDITION addresses questions of first impression interpreting new state statutes that limit the enforceability of covenants not to compete executed by employees in the broadcasting industries; contains expanded analysis of covenant-protectable interests in both actual and potential customer relationships; discusses the effect of abandonment of a particular line of business, as well as the effect of abandonment of customers; analyzes equitable restitution and conditions precedent to contract formation; and focuses on covenants in the health care professions.
COVENANTS NOT TO COMPETE offers the latest information on critical subjects. Courts all across the United States have resolved a number of questions of first impression that have a substantial and direct bearing on the enforceability of covenants not to compete in the nation today. The all-new 2011 SUPPLEMENT delves into further detail on these topics and includes:
- Expanded discussion of restrictions involving physicians and other health care professionals
- Expanded discussion of judicial modifiability
- Expanded discussion of enforceable time, geographic, and activity limits
This treatise also identifies and discusses issues with significant splits of authority across the states, including whether the mere leasing of property to a competitor violates the terms of a noncompete clause where the clause fails to include language specifically prohibiting such action. "Additional Topics" at the end of relevant chapters address hundreds of make-or-break issues, including:
- Context characterization: service agreement versus employment context
- Effect of dissolution of employer
- Grace periods to cure breach not presumed
- Effect of individual capacity (entering into covenant in)
The treatise is published in cooperation with the Employment Rights and Responsibilities Committee of the ABA Section of Labor and Employment Law. Section publications provide a balanced forum for the views and professional development of practitioners in labor and employment law.
