Earlier this week, a federal court in Texas struck down the FTC’s ban on employment noncompete agreements. What does this mean for the future of this ban? While a definitive loss, as Michelle Mantine shares in a Law360 article, this decision likely isn't the final word, as this matter will inevitably need to be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. #noncompetes #regulatory #enforcement #antitrust #competition #employment "The writing is on the wall that this is going to come down to a Supreme Court decision." – Michelle Mantine

It’s in the nature of bureaucracies to inexorably expand their size and power. Fortunately, the Constitution stands in their way. If this is a matter in which the federal government has the power to act under the Commerce Clause, our elected Congress must act — not appointed bureaucrats from the Executive Branch. "In sum, the Court concludes that the FTC lacks statutory authority to promulgate the Non-Compete Rule, and that the Rule is arbitrary and capricious. Thus, the FTC's promulgation of the Rule is an unlawful agency action," Judge Brown said. #noncompete #ftc #federaltradecommission #separationofpowers #usconstitution #constitutionallaw #administrativelaw #federalcourt

After the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) announcement of a nationwide ban on noncompete agreements, there are several key points everyone should be aware of regarding employment contracts. There's been a shift in how existing agreements are treated. While senior executives in policy-making roles earning over $151,164 annually may see their agreements upheld, new non-competes are prohibited. There are alternatives like trade secret laws and NDAs that offer avenues to protect proprietary information.
