AM. WINDOW CLEANING CO. OF SPRINGFIELD, MASS. v. COHEN


343 Mass. 195 (1961)

178 N.E.2d 5

AMERICAN WINDOW CLEANING COMPANY OF SPRINGFIELD, MASS. vs. LOUIS COHEN & another.

Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Hampden.

November 17, 1961.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert D. Moran, for the defendants.

Irving M. Cohen, for the plaintiff.

Present: WILKINS, C.J., SPALDING, WHITTEMORE, CUTTER, & KIRK, JJ.


WHITTEMORE, J.

The defendants ask us to reverse the final decree of the Superior Court which adjudged that certain competitive conduct by the defendant Cohen was unlawful and that the defendants are liable in damages. There was no injunctive relief. At issue is the extent to which a former corporate officer and employee, in the absence of an agreement not to compete, may solicit the corporation's customers and use information acquired while associated with it.
