Section 1608 - Single consideration for one or more objects or several considerations for single object unlawful

1 Citing brief

  1. GSI Technology, Inc. v. United Memories, Inc.

    MOTION for Judgment as a Matter of Law Motion for Judgment on Partial Findings and Judgment as Matter of Law Re Plaintiff's UCL and Tiper Claims

    Filed November 17, 2015

    Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 16600; see also Cal. Civil Code § 1608 (“entire contract is void” if any consideration “is unlawful”). Thus, even if ISSI had actual knowledge of the noncompete (which even GSI does not claim), ISSI’s work with UMI in the face of the noncompete could not support a UCL claim as a matter of law.
