No. You made the claim. A person who makes the claim has the obligation to show that the claim is correct.
I’m not melting down at all.
I’m calling you out for playing internet lawyer and lying about what the law is.
So that no one here is led astray by clowns playing internet lawyer.
With minor exceptions, non-compete clauses are almost exclusively matter of State law. The Supreme Court has rarely had the opportunity to decide any case involving employment non-compete provisions.
Here is a pretty good summary of non-compete after a layoff and the lay of the land as to what the law actually is:
“ I’m calling you out for playing internet lawyer and lying about what the law is.”
Well, I don’t know one way or another if the can enforce them (I certainly think it would be illogical to be able to), but based on the standards YOU DEMAND, it’s now up to YOU to prove your assertion that he’s lying.
See how that works? Let’s see your proof that he’s lying. You made the claim and per your standards, you must now back it up.
