How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that lack of geographic limitation is permissible when it “does not impose undue hardship”
- noting that Maryland courts determine whether the geographic scope of a restrictive covenant is reasonable by looking to the \specific facts\ of the case (quoting Ruhl , 225 A.2d at 291 )
- recognizing the role of restrictive covenants in protecting business goodwill
- lack of geographic scope was reasonable when company operated business nationwide and scope of restriction was limited to “those businesses that compete directly for the customers and accounts of Intelus”
