Brown & Saenger, Inc., Defendant and Appellee
Case Type
CIVIL APPEAL : EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE DISPUTE
Appeal From
Case No. 2017-CV-00660
East Central Judicial District, Cass County
Thomas R. Olson
2017 ND 288904 N.W.2d 34
Oral Argument 10/9/2017

Highlight

The standard of review of a district court's granting of a Rule 12(b)(3) motion to dismiss on the basis of a forum selection clause is de novo.
North Dakota has a strong public policy against non-competition agreements, causing the non-compete clause and forum-selection clause to be rendered unenforceable in an employment contract.
