    Is there a noncompete law?

    I'm guessing that this refers to seeing an online discussion about the court decision. The offer and agreement appears to have a non-compete clause or agreement which would be invalidated by the FTC's ban on non-compete restrictions. Given the timing of the post, the court in issue would be the...

    Is there a noncompete law?

    What @adjusterjack says should be taken seriously, especially with regard to sales. If it's drafted the right way (and I've drafted, reviewed and negotiated many), they will have a 'savings clause' which states something to the effect that if the stated limitation is deemed to be in violation of...

    Federal District Court Judge Strikes Down Biden Ban on Worker 'Noncompete' Contracts!

    I was wondering how it could possibly be upheld. I completely appreciate the plight of workers and employees from being held hostage to strict non-competition and non-disclosure agreements that are being used as weapons, especially those that are completely open ended and not tailored to address...

    Ownership, Title How to Prevent and Address Squatter Abuses Against Property Owners

    New York City squatters have been making headlines by evicting legal homeowners from their property, with extreme examples including the arrest of a homeowner trying to regain possession of their house in Flushing, Queens. With the influx of migrants seeking shelter and the arrest of a popular...

    Is this a valid defense to a DUI stop?

    This comment thread itself is hilarious, lol. I would be impressed by the ability to create such an inventive defense. However, after spending too much time in NYC around people who believe they are never wrong, I would find such defense suspect. I'd insist he explain why he couldn't drive in a...

    Is this a valid defense to a DUI stop?

    Someone just sent this video clip to me asking whether this would present a valid defense to a DUI stop and failure to walk a straight line. Would this hold up in court?

    Coop owner disputes with smoking issues

    @adjusterjack is exactly correct that New York requires a smoking policy (yet another New York Local Law - 147). But that alone may not going to solve the problem you're discussing. Trying to enforce any smoking policy is very difficult. How do you prove conclusively someone is smoking and that...

    Witnessed my friend's "accident"

    Reminded me of the 1996 movie "Sleepers" where our main characters steal a hot dog cart and toss it down the subway stairs, thinking no one will get harmed until a man appears and is almost killed by the cart. Our 'protagonists' ended up in jail for quite a while, likely for the same reason this...

    Need help with fake medicare case

    I didn't even get that far because I stopped reading after he said you can make up any facts you wish. Funny that those details might actually have been part of the original case information and the most important to know. I was going to suggest making up that the defendant ultimately determined...

    accused of threats/intimidation because of a social media post

    Sorry to hear about the problem and most important is to calm down and not to panic. An overwhleming amount of the time will few ever see a handful of posts lost in the millions of rubbish that consumes Twitter/X, or whatever Elon Musk calls it these days. Some basics: 1) We haven't seen the...

    Grace period for time expiration for parking meters

    I was in Westchester on a sub-freezing day and almost got caught in the municipal parking lot with the same issue. The muni meter wasn't reading credit cards and then I had to figure out how the 'zone ' system worked in the municipal parking lot by going to the website, which was not easy to...

    Need help with fake medicare case

    So help is needed to come up with damages? My suggestion would be to watch South Park and watch what happens to Kenny and apply it to real life. You can also come up with a whole group of terrible things that can happen on a trip to foreign islands with powerful people and coming home with new...
