- [NP-Clinical] Non-Compete Clause - Email found in subject

I have that clause in my contact and no it is null and void because she was fired.  If she left on her own then it would apply.

Dear Colleagues:

I have a question on behalf of an NP friend who was employed by a private 
practice for several years. She was fired about six months ago, by the 
office manager, and was given a letter of termination.

Her contract with the private practice group apparently had a non-compete 
clause stating that she couldn't work in a similar private practice within 
20 miles for two years after leaving the group. Her question is this: is the 
non-compete clause still valid, if she left the practice against her will?

What do yall think? Thanks in advance for your input.

Best Regards,

Shelby Havens, ARNP
