NC has a so-called right to work law, but in an entirely different
sense. It's actually a right to union bust law. Now, IANAL, but my
cousin is. He's a former US Attorney now practicing law in this state.
He has told me of more than one successfully prosecuted case here where
contractors were suppressed from working within the 50 mile radius
commonly specified in many non-compete agreements. I cannot cite the
case law myself, but the cases were from times when it was much less of
a buyer's market than it is today.

Sincerely,

Chris Calloway
