  • Has the state or jurisdiction addressed covenants against competition in the context of franchising?
  • Have the courts articulated the 'legitimate interests' of the franchisor that will support enforcement of a covenant against competition contained in a franchise agreement?
  • What time limitations have courts recognized as reasonable in the franchise context?
  • What geographic limitations have courts recognized as reasonable?
  • What limitations on activities have courts recognized as reasonable in the franchise context?
  • Does the jurisdiction recognize a difference between in-term and post-term covenants?
  • Has the state allowed enforcement of covenants against non-signatories?
  • Will the jurisdiction modify, 'blue pencil' or otherwise reduce a covenant found to be overbroad?
  • When does a non-compete period begin to run?
  • Are there additional nuances or peculiarities of the jursidiction's treatment of covenants in the franchising context?
