In a highly anticipated opinion, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas invalidated the FTC’s rule banning most non-compete agreements, opining that the FTC exceeded its authority in promulgating the rule and that the rule is arbitrary and capricious. This decision blocks the rule from becoming effective nationwide on September 4, 2024. As a result, existing non-compete agreements may still be valid and enforceable when permitted under applicable law.

The Michigan Supreme Court revived two 2018 voter-initiated laws aimed at increasing the state’s minimum wage and expanding earned sick time for workers. In doing so, the Court held that the Michigan Legislature’s “adopt-and-amend” process—adopting the initiatives and then in the same session significantly altering them—“violated the people’s constitutionally guaranteed right to propose and enact laws through the initiative process” under the state constitution. The decision has major implications for Michigan’s workplaces, especially considering the revived laws, with some adjustments explained below, will go into effect February 21, 2025.

The decision underscores the distinction between employer-employee relationships and the responsibilities schools bear in such cases.
