    Non-Solicit or Non-Starter? When Employment Contracts Go Too Far

    ⭐ Special guest litigator Charles Garabedian of Mark Migdal & Hayden Welcome back to the Lawsomesauce Podcast! In this episode of Lawsome Sauce, PJ and Harper explore Sunbelt Rentals v. Cox, a case where a non-solicitation clause aimed at protecting a company’s workforce backfired in court. When a former employee allegedly tried to recruit his old colleagues, Sunbelt Rentals sued—but their contract was so broad, covering thousands of employees across multiple states, that the court threw the case out. Special guest Charles Garabedian joins to explain why non-solicitation agreements must be narrowly written, how Florida courts view restrictive covenants, and what businesses (and employees) need to know before relying on these clauses to protect talent.

    AI on Trial: Thomson Reuters v. Ross Intelligence

    ⭐  Special guest : Grok 3, xAI Training data isn’t free—and now the courts agree. In this episode of Lawsomesauce, hosts PJ and Harper are joined by special guest Grok 3, an AI developed by xAI, to break down one of the most pivotal legal cases in the battle over AI training data: Thomson Reuters v. Ross Intelligence. The case centers on whether Ross Intelligence infringed copyrights by using Westlaw’s headnotes—editorial summaries owned by Thomson Reuters—to train a legal AI tool. With the court rejecting Ross’s fair use defense, the decision sends a powerful message to developers: training AI on copyrighted material is not risk-free.

    ⭐ Special guest litigator Yaniv Adar of Mark Migdal & Hayden In this episode of Lawsome Sauce, we take a dip into Allied Universal Corp. v.

The trial court said Allied didn’t prove irreparable harm—but the appellate court dove deeper and reversed course. PJ and Harper explore how Florida law (Section 542.335, for those keeping score) presumes harm in these cases, and Yaniv explains what it means for employers, employees, and anyone treading water in the murky depths of post-employment restrictions.
