One City Built to Last
The news is in: On November 7, 2014, the justices announced they would decide on a lawsuit claiming that the language of the Affordable Care Act doesn’t allow the government to provide tax-credits to low-and-moderate-income health insurance consumers using federally funded Obamacare exchanges operating in more than 30 states.

Employee non-Competition Agreements:<br />
IMPORTANT ISSUES<br />
FOR EMPLOYERS<br />
before and after hiring.<br />
Fairness and Enforceability Should<br />
be the Benchmark Legal Target<br />
Phillip L. Chapman thinks that<br />
employers should add this question <strong>to</strong><br />
the interview process:<br />
Have you signed a<br />
post-employment noncompete<br />
agreement with<br />
your previous employer?<br />
“Quite often, potential new employees do not remember – or think that<br />
perhaps they did, but they don’t have a copy – so they and the new<br />
employer do not know what restrictions might be at play,” Chapman said.<br />
“This issue has <strong>to</strong> be addressed immediately before they go any further in<br />
the hiring process.”<br />
