As a company, the last thing you want to do is to spend thousands of dollars obtaining a temporary injunction against a former employee who is violating his or her non-compete or non-solicitation obligations, only to have the injunction reversed on appeal because it failed to contain all the necessary terms.
Schlumberger learned this the hard way when the Houston Court of Appeals reversed a temporary injunction issued by the trial court because it did not contain an expiration date. The court specifically stated that “Texas law does not permit a trial court to enter an open-ended injunction against competition.”
