West Chester man can change jobs with limits
A Hamilton County judge ruled a researcher with trade secret knowledge in disposable diaper production may work for a competitor only in a noncompetitive division. Dennis C. Holtman of West Chester must not reveal Stearns & Foster information to future employers, and a two year post employment restriction was noted though not enforced. The ruling blocked a temporary injunction against Holtman joining Johnson & Johnson Baby Products in Chicago. Stearns & Foster claimed Holtman possessed nonwoven fabric knowledge tied to a Procter & Gamble product. The suit involved contract terms and potential competitive conflict. P&G was not a party.
