On July 23, 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania denied
the plaintiff’s motion in ATS Tree Services LLC v. FTC for a preliminary injunction to block the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) noncompete ban. This ruling differs from an early July holding in a similar case in the Northern District of Texas (Ryan LLC v. FTC) that partially blocked the ban with respect to the plaintiffs in that case, but not nationwide. In each case, the ban is still scheduled to take effect for most employers on Sept. 4, 2024.
