The Maryland General Assembly passed a law rendering unenforceable non-compete agreement as applied to certain lower wage employees. The law renders void non-compete agreements that attempt to restrict competition by employees earning equal to or less than $15.00 per hour or $31,200 annually. The new law, for the most part, codifies the existing state of affairs in Maryland under decision law. That law makes clear that only a narrow class of employees may lawfully be covered by such an agreement.
