Supreme Court of Alabama
Craneworks, Inc. v. Rpm Cranes, LLC, and Muhammad Wasim Ali Russell Brooks v. Rpm Cranes, LLC, and Muhammad Wasim Ali
June 16, 2017239 So. 3d 561
Summary
The Alabama Supreme Court reversed the Jefferson Circuit Court’s permanent injunction against former RPM employees and CraneWorks, holding that the trial court erred because RPM failed to demonstrate a valid non‑competition agreement, a protectable interest, and an inadequate legal remedy, and because the injunction was overly broad and failed Rule 65(d)(2) specificity. The Court applied de novo review and remanded for further proceedings.
