Partner Tony Oncidi is quoted discussing the lawsuit the Firm recently filed on behalf of Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) against Amazon over its hiring of an employee who was under contract to WBD, as well as the evolving California law governing employee mobility and restrictive covenants. He highlights WBD’s position that fixed-term employment agreements provide executives with “security and certainty” while supporting workforce stability and business planning and that a third party’s interference with such contracts is tortious activity under California law.
