Enforcement Of Noncompete Agreements: Protecting The Public Interest Through An Entrepreneurial Approach, Griffin Toronjo Pivateau

Enforcement of Noncompete Agreements: Protecting the Public Interest Through an Entrepreneurial Approach

The enforcement of noncompete agreements is variable, differing between courts, between states, and between contexts. Analysis of a noncompete agreement tends not only to be fact-dependent, but location-dependent as well. Some states enforce virtually all noncompete agreements; other states refuse to enforce any noncompete agreements. Courts determine reasonableness without regard to the terms of the agreement. A noncompete agreement is a unique type of contract, as the normal contract standard of mutual agreement supported by consideration falls to the wayside. Instead, reasonableness becomes the key to enforceability.

Illegal Agreements And The Lesser Evil Principle, Chunlin Leonhard

Chunlin Leonhard

Illegal agreement disputes force U.S. courts to wrestle with multiple competing interests. The courts’ approach has been generally explained and understood in terms of the general rule of non-enforcement of illegal agreements with numerous exceptions. The case law on this topic has been described as “a vast, confusing and rather mysterious area of the law.” This article offers the insight that, contrary to common belief, courts’ approach to illegal agreements shows a consistent pattern. A review of randomly selected cases shows that the courts have by and large consistently (albeit implicitly) applied the lesser evil principle in resolving the disputes. …

Short-Circuiting Contract Law: The Federal Circuit's Contract Law Jurisprudence And Intellectual Property Federalism, Shubha Ghosh

Shubha Ghosh

The Federal Circuit was established in 1982 as an appellate court with limited jurisdiction over patent claims. However, the Federal Circuit has used this limited jurisdiction to expand its reach into contract law, developing a federal common law of contract. Given the growing importance of patent litigation in the past three decades, this creation of an independent body of contract law creates uncertainty in transactions involving patents. This troublesome development received attention in Stanford v Roche, a 2011 Supreme Court decision upholding the Federal Circuit's invalidation of a patent assignment to Stanford University. This Article documents the development of …

Present At The Creation: Reflections On The Early Years Of The National Association Of Corporate Directors, Lawrence J. Trautman

Lawrence J. Trautman Sr.

Effective corporate governance is critical to the productive operation of the global economy and preservation of our way of life.

Why Venture Capital Will Not Be Crowded Out By Crowdfunding, Ryan Kantor

Bocconi Legal Papers

As the recovery period from one of the worst recessions in our history continues on, life for the fledgling and even, often times, experienced entrepreneur has been tough. Indeed, President Obama remarked “[c]redit’s been tight, and no matter how good their ideas are, if an entrepreneur can’t get a loan from a bank or backing from investors, it’s always impossible to get their businesses off the ground.” In response to this ever-present need for business funding, and in an attempt to stimulate the economy and job growth, Obama signed the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) into law on …

The Discrimination Between National And Foreign Investors In The Lebanese Corporate Law, Khodr Fakih

khodr fakih

A country that treats foreign and domestic investors alike in regards to commercial dealings motivates foreign investors to play a fundamental role in stimulating economy in such country. However, non-discriminatory treatment is sometimes undesirable from the perspective of public policy. Most national laws provide certain measures of discriminating between foreign and domestic investors in order to give its citizens more privileges and advantages over foreign investors. This is applicable in the Lebanese Commercial legal system. This paper discusses the discrimination that is implemented by the Lebanese Commercial Law between Lebanese and non-Lebanese investors specifically in regards to commercial representation and …

Royalties And Fees For Technical Services In International Trade, Snehal Bade

Snehal Bade

In the late 1980’s, the more progressive developing countries, particularly in Latin America, began to give up their isolationist policies and to loosen the controls over trade and investment. Today they are trying to attract large sources of new capital for investment, new technologies, new manufacturing techniques and business know-how, improve training for their labour force and organizational and managerial expertise. Some countries are lowering taxes on royalties paid to foreign companies under licensing agreements for modern technology and technical assistance.

The importance of choosing the law governing an arbitration agreement regardless of the choice of the seat. Parties to a contract may not be aware that an arbitration agreement is separable and distinct from the main contract between the parties.

What Has Sharia Got To Do With Arbitration, Mohamed Raffa

Mohamed Raffa Dr.

In Arbitration, parties do not seek revenge as in criminal proceedings, they are there to seek equitable justice in compensation. In Sharia, rules are set to eliminate equitable injustice. For cultural differences as well as misconceptions due in large to the influence of Sharia based local laws and the complicated enforcement schemes, many foreign investors have been reluctant to seat their arbitrations in countries that apply Sharia or to attach themselves to a contract with a ‘Sharia Arbitration’ clause.
