I imagine writing down the ways in which you're agreeing to break the law doesn't bode well if the government comes after you and that document gets presented in court.
Likely the illegal bits were whispers, winks, and head nods.
- try_the_bass 3y agoI mean, is it actually illegal to add terms to the settlement that require some party to (essentially) promise not to go back to doing the thing? It seems like it follows the same principles as non-compete stipulations that come with certain forms of severance, right? I think those often take the form of "we'll pay you this severance, and in return you'll agree to not work in the industry for a couple years". Or am I just uninformed and those are illegal, too?
