Post-employment litigation

[Mammoth]

Hello Fastlaners,

I just found out that the owner of the company that I work for is suing a former manager for starting his business while he was still working here.

I know that every non-compete is different and that laws in Canada vs. USA are different, but does anyone have experiences of this happening to them or to someone that they know?

I haven't incorporated my business yet, but maybe this is something I should take into consideration before I do.

Any input or advice is welcomed.
