This book is a state-by-state analysis of covenants against competition in the franchise context, addressing how franchise covenants have been interpreted and enforced under each state's law. Each chapter answers the same series of nine questions designed to extract and illuminate the fundamental principles and specific applications of the approach taken by each state's law to franchise covenant enforcement. This structure not only makes each state's law quickly accessible and usable, it allows comparative research and analysis by franchisors, franchisees and courts with an ease that is simply unavailable elsewhere.
