Mark, Not to give you legal advice, however depending on the state your agreement/employer is from, these types of agreements can rarely be enforced unless they are compensating you during that time, for that specific clause. That being said, it would be in the corporations right to attempt to collect if the agreement was broken usually never taken to court/mediated and just use it as scare tactics. Long as you don't take any Intellectual Property your more than likely good to go. We stopped indentured servitude in the 19th century in the United States. Matt Matthew F.

But today's twist is, can corporations enforce any sort of anti-competitive legal clauses to prevent a non-revenue producing CSO (who has been at the company for approximately a year) from going to work for a competitor or one of their resellers or VARs?? If so, how long can a corporation enforce this type of legal agreement for ?? (2 months, 1 year, forever?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The Norwich University program offers unparalleled Infosec management education and the case study affords you unmatched consulting experience.
