No Word on Blue Pencil Decision

January 13th, 2012 by JBWK

Although, according to its normal schedule, the Virginia Supreme Court should have issued its long-awaited “blue pencil” decision last week, it didn’t.

Employers have been waiting to see, first, if the Court will address the blue pencil issue, and, second, what its view will be. Blue pencil provisions allow a court to limit an employer/employee non-compete agreement to make it enforceable.

The next round of opinions will not be released until March 2.
