Facts

Data (P) employed Greene (D) and Van Camp (D). The parties signed a covenant not to compete for five years after termination of employment. Shortly after termination of employment P sued D for violation of the agreement. A preliminary injunction was granted, but the court granted summary judgment to D as the court found the anti-compete covenant was not severable and was wholly unenforceable. The contract prohibited competition in the entire State of Alaska. P appealed.
