Judith is a CPA with an excellent reputation and client base. She sells her tax preparation business to Shawn, and the sales contract includes a non-compete clause restricting Judith from opening a similar business for one year within a 10-mile radius of her former office. If she opens a tax preparation office five miles away after one year, a court would probably:.
a. order confiscation of all of her new client files and turn them over to Shawn.
b. refuse to enforce the non-compete clause, as it is un-reasonable regarding time and geographic area.
c. grant an injunction barring her from operating the new office.
d. refuse to become involved, as the non-compete clause was illegal.
