The plaintiff brought a motion for a permanent injunction to enforce non-competition and confidentiality clauses against two former employees and their new employer.
The court dismissed the motion, finding that the plaintiff failed to establish a strong prima facie case for the non-competition breach because the businesses were not substantially similar and the clauses were overly broad and unenforceable.
Although there was a prima facie case of a minor confidentiality breach by one employee, the court found no irreparable harm and determined the balance of convenience favored the defendants.
