ON AGAIN, OFF AGAIN…OFF AGAIN NOW: The FTC’s Non-Compete Rule08/27/2024
On August 20, 2024, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas set aside and deemed unlawful and unenforceable the Non-Compete Rule (“Rule”) promulgated by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”). In Ryan LLC v. Federal Trade Commission (“Ryan”), 2024 WL 3879954 (N.D. Texas August 20, 2024), the Court determined that the Rule was violative of the FTC Act, the Administrative Procedure Act, and the Declaratory Judgment Act. The Court ruled that the FTC “exceeded its statutory authority in implementing the Rule” and further declared the Rule to be “arbitrary and capricious” for being unreasonably overbroad and not reflective of reasonable alternatives. The Court held that the Rule “shall not be enforced or otherwise take effect on September 4, 2024, or thereafter.”
