My wife was and employed manifiestor, I was a contracted instructor/ rigger. In the state of Texas. The DZO called my new drop zone and told the DZO here that he will be filling a law suit for breach of a no compete contract today the 28th aginst my wife, myself, and our new DZO. Blue Skies Lance

This DZO seems to be doing this out of anger for my wife and I quitting on him. We gave him 30 days notice to help him transition a new person into the manifiest position my wife held. He told to shove the 30 days and to get off his property ASAP. We have not been officially served, but have been threated with it just yesterday. I believe his motivation is driven by his enormous ego. We are not causing him or his DZ any hardship. He is just trying to be a bully. Blue Skies Lance

Does anyone have any experience with a previous drop zone owner/employer trying to sue you for going to work for another drop zone that is in close proximity (80 miles) to his facility? I live in a right to work state, and there are no trade secrets or special information associated with the work done for that DZO. It would seem unfair to try to take from a person the ability to make a living out of malice. Blue Skies Lance
