Employers who enter into or attempt to enforce noncompetes are liable for damages and a penalty of up to $5,000 per employee. A partner must own more than 10 percent of a business to qualify for the sale of a business exemption to California's noncompete ban.
Non-compete agreements are considered civil contracts and violating them leads to civil penalties. If you break a non-compete agreement, your former employer may sue you for breach of contract.
