96 N.J. Eq. 203 | N.J. Ct. of Ch. | 1924
This is a case for the construction of a restrictive clause as to resuming business within a certain area. The clause in the contract reads as follows: "The party of the first part is not to open a similar business or work for anybody in a similar business within the radius of ten city blocks for five years, east, west, north or south." *204
The principle involved in this case was decided in Messinger
v. Fransblau, 118 Atl. Rep. 260. I, myself, filed an opinion in a case very similar to this in Tsangas v. Broogos,
I shall therefore deny the motion for the injunction.
