This Law Firm Publication by Jackson Lewis P.C. discusses the potential effect on Florida noncompete law of the Eleventh Circuit's decision in Transunion Risk and Alt. Data Solutions, Inc. v. MacLachlan. The decision held that federal courts must balance potential harm to a former employee with threatened injury to the employer when deciding whether to grant an injunction enforcing a non-compete. The decision may change how Florida courts evaluate restrictive covenants in employment agreements because Florida's non-compete statute (Fla. Stat. § 542.335(1)(g)1)) expressly prohibits Florida courts from considering the hardship that may be caused to the former employee.
