Question:

A senior executive for Estee Lauder, based in New York, had world-wide responsibility for one of its brands and North American responsibility for another. He resigned to take a position in California with a competitor of Estee Lauder. When the executive was originally hired, he had signed a noncompetition agreement. The agreement barred him from working for a competitor anywhere in the world for a 12-month period after leaving employment.

Estee Lauder maintained that the agreement was enforceable and that New York law applied. Which state’s law is the relevant law in this case? Should the appropriate court enforce this agreement?
