I hopped on FB to look at marketplace and one of the first posts I saw before I clicked:

Low standards there. Do you think they will sign an NC?

No, like anything else, there are trade-offs and opportunity costs.
Under your logic, being a batista at Starbucks would be one if the freest jobs their is. Earning more $ equals more financial freedom, and companies requiring non-compete or anti-union clauses often pay more

Just goes to show that you don't need to be a subject matter expert to win an election.

Are you serious?
Serious as arse cancer. Are you really one of those people who thinks there’s nothing going on beyond NOLA and BR? I thought those people were just a myth. Is it real?? And is there not a possibility that elsewhere in the state there may actually be districts and perhaps even “regions” where the judiciary is fine?

Correct- it doesn’t matter ultimately whether they are fair or enforceable, so long as the employee has to pay to litigate- the contract enforces itself.
I can understand the desire to include them as an employer, but I have some real concerns about whether them.

No. I used those two because NOLA is the states largest city, with the largest amount of per capita litigation, and BR is the states most-populated JDC. And all suits against the state are litigated in BR by law, so the 19th gets a ton of mileage. Those two plus Shreveport, Lafayette, LC, and St Tammany have almost all of the state’s civil litigation from a numbers perspective. Yes, those places all have largely terrible judiciary’s populated with awful elected judges who haven’t actually practiced law in their entire career.

There absolutely is, it just doesn’t matter at all whether Tensas Parish has a good two judges or not.

I see your response thread, bruh. Go argue with them about it.

Well, you said nobody on the board supports RTW because you realized it was hypocritical so I went ahead and asked them and it's overwhelming support for RTW, thus making your observation ridiculous.

In my experience, the employee’s new employer foots that bill 9.5/10 times, and the 0.5/10 was because the dumbass employee either stole information or did something else that got them sued.

Mmk, but I said nobody on this board that I had seen. I don’t. It’s not something that is discussed here often. So what’s your point?

I’m of the opinion that these types of clauses are mostly pointless and little harm would occur to anyone (or any industry) if they were all magically deemed invalid tomorrow.

You practice in Louisiana and you want MORE cases in front of our awful judiciary?
Arbitration contracts in adhesion contracts are a terrible idea. But, yes, I agree the La judiciary has some problems.
From a political standpoint, The FTC doesn’t need to be setting limits for n noncompete clauses, I agree.
Noncompete clauses have their place, but by and large I’m mistrustful of them and think they’re an invitation to pointless litigation for litigation’s sake.

If I hire you to be an engineer at my company working in the back room with the trade secrets on which my entire company survives, and I want you to sign an agreement that you can never work for any of my competitors for a period of ten years following your termination (voluntary or not) of this position, I think that has merit.
First that should be covered by an nda not a nca and trade secret laws.

I hate government overreach
However I am ok with protecting people.
I cannot think of any way a non compete ever helps the employee, only the company.

Well, you’re still ignoring other places throughout the state beyond what you’ve listed. Lincoln Parish has more than two. But less than four. Lol
Ouachita Parish, 11 elected judges. I’m sure similar in Rapides. Calcasieu. Plenty robust enough judiciaries and bars to consider in the equation of the overall “state judiciary”.

Who cares if it mostly protects a company? Small businesses use them the same as large corporations. I gave a great example of how it benefited a small company.
I will repost it here:
A friend of mine owns a business and just won a case where a company was started by a few former employees who were in direct competition with him. They went after his clients which they only knew about from working for him. He had NDAs as well as NCs signed. He won but imagine how much weaker his case would be without a NC.
Why should he be exposed to losing his business just to "protect employees" as you called it?
