Case: Individual Employment Rights/Noncompete Agreements (Ill. App. Ct.)

The Illinois Appellate Court affirmed the dismissal of Community Home Physicians, LLC’s claims against a registered nurse/case manager for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, tortious interference with prospective economic advantage, and civil conspiracy under the Nurse Agency Licensing Act, finding that the noncompetition agreement was invalid as CHP qualified as a nurse agency, and that CHP failed to adequately plead the elements of the remaining claims when the nurse sought employment with Northwestern Medicine hospital.
