Non-Compete Clause

There is a material fact missing. In order to evaluate this matter one needs to know the state for which the underlying non-compete was signed and the context of the non-compete provision. If the non-compete arose out of an employment relationship, where the employee was not an equity holder, any non-compete provision may be unenforceable. Ultimately, the law of the state in which the employment took place will dictate the result.
