Typical BS harassment lawsuit. The founder of a company I once worked for was immediately sued by his former employer over a "non-compete" clause when he and two other colleagues left Company X to form their own company. Even though they didn't go after Company X's clients. The judge threw out the suit, ruling that such non-competes were basically slavery, and not enforceable. Still, all it cost Company X was a bit of time to and money to have their lawyers draw up papers and file the suit. This seems to be a common tactic among body shops to intimidate their workers. Glad to hear about Allegis getting slapped for this - hope Hammernik files a countersuit, but she probably doesn't have the time or money.
