Question

Dr. Wilson, an orthopedic surgeon worked for the Medical Group in Utah. He signed an agreement when hired to not "compete with the Group after leaving it for 2 years and within a radius of 5 miles." After leaving the group, and in violation of the covenant against competition, Dr. Wilson set up an orthopedic practice. The Medical Group did not replace Dr. Wilson with another orthopedic surgeon and none was practicing medicine within 35 miles. If the Medical Group sued to enforce the covenant, a court would rule in its favor.

A. True
B. False

Answer 1
