i signed a non compete clause with the first owners of my former company. the company was then sold to the present owners.
After working for my former employer (present owner) for 3 weeks they present me with a non compete clause. I sign it, but it is just me and the owner present when I signed it. a few weeks later i ask for a copy of it. they say sure but I never get a copy. this was in june 04
in november 04 I ask again for a copy once again they say sure but still no copy. in dec 04 I ask again but this time I am told that by the owner that the previous owner has told him not to give me a copy of it because that means i want a lawyer to look at it. so I can't have a copy of it. well in may 2005 after being feed up with getting paid late, having my heath insurance taken away, and attemting to cut my base salary a few weeks earlier. I decided to part ways and work for another company. Now after a few weeks with this new company they are calling me with threats of enforcing the non compete if I don't quit working.
my question is. Is this non compete enforcable seeing as they refused to give me a copy? also seeing as there wasn't witness' present when signing the contract does that make it invalde? Also I have been told that you must sign or intital every page is this true?
