4. Is an agreement not to compete enforceable? Cooper sold Blackwell Construction Material Company, including its goodwill, to Stewart. The sale agreement contained a \"covenant not to compete\" that prohibited Cooper from entering the same business within 100 miles of Blackwell headquarters for 10 years. A year later, Stewart sold the company to Gidden. Cooper then started a similar business in apparent violation of the covenant not to compete and Gidden asked the court to issue an injunction prohibiting Cooper from competing with him. Cooper claimed that the covenant was personal to Stewart and for other reasons not enforceable. \\VHAT DO YOU THINK THE COURT SHOULD DO? WHAT LEGAL ISSUES SHOULD THE COURT CONSIDER
