Description

This is a contract construction case involving a merger agreement between two accounting firms and the contractual damages provision for a departing partner who takes clients from the firm. The court of appeals held one damages provision was an unenforceable restraint on trade but the other provision was enforceable. 775 S.W.2d 698. We hold that a damages provision affecting the right to render personal services operates as a restraint of trade and must be judged by the reasonableness standards for covenants not to compete, and that the sole relevant contractual provision at issue is unreasonable. We reverse the judgment of the court of appeals because it provided for a remand on the irrelevant damages provision, and affirm the trial court judgment.
