Report Link Ohio Court Finds Non-Compete Assignment Valid, But Scores Duration.
Jackson Lewis LLP - January 29, 2009
A non-compete agreement between an employee and her former employer was validly assigned to her new employer, but the two-year time restriction of the agreement was unreasonable, an Ohio appeals court has held. Murray v. Accounting Center & Tax Services, Inc., et al., 178 Ohio App.3d 432, 2008-Ohio-5289 (Court of Appeals, Sixth Appellate District, Lucas County (Toledo)).
Report Link Trade Secrets and Former Employees: Memorized Client Lists Can Still Be Protected as a Secret.
Littler Mendelson, P.C. - March 05, 2008
The Supreme Court of Ohio has ruled that the use of a memorized client list by a former employee can constitute a trade secret violation. Specifically, in Al Minor & Associates, Inc. v. Martin, the Ohio Supreme Court has determined that a trade secret does not necessarily lose its status or protection as a trade secret under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act simply because it has been committed to memory by a former employee. In other words, the Ohio Supreme Court has clarified that a trade secret is a trade secret – regardless of whether it is in writing or memorized.
Report Link Competition from Former Employees: Ohio Appellate Court Clarifies Application of the "Inevitable Disclosure" Doctrine.
Littler Mendelson, P.C. - February 22, 2007
A recent court decision in Ohio provides an important new interpretation of the rights, and limitations, that employers may face when key employees leave and begin to compete. The decision also highlights several critical steps that employers should take if and when an employee leaves to compete, and when company trade secrets, other confidential information, and customers are at risk. In particular, employers must move quickly to protect against threats to their trade secrets and customer relationships, and they must take steps to carefully identify – and maintain the confidentiality of – their trade secrets and other sensitive business information.
