Quixtar's Contract Takes Judge's Breath Away!!!

** UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE **

As promised, as more information comes in on this important ruling, we'll provide the details for you. A link to the Georgia Courts ruling now exists below.


The Quixtar Whistle Blower has learned some important, late breaking information coming out of Georgia.

More info will come as this story unfolds, but needless to say, our 'friends' at AmQuix were dealt quite a blow today from the Honorable Judge David E. Barrett in Georgia.

It's amazing to see what happens when AmQuix actually has to defend itself in public court, vs. hiding behind the closed doors of a confidential arbitration process.

In the case of Campbell & Turner v Quixtar, Judge Barrett today ruled against Quixtar and their non-compete section of the "Rules of Conduct".

According to Judge Barrett's ruling - "The area covered is so incredibly large that the non-competition clause is "unenforceable on its face....". In his ruling Judge Barrett also stated, "The scope of geographic coverage of the Rules takes one's breath away."

Now I'm not an attorney, but I dont' think it's a good idea to take a Judge's breath away... do you??

Ouch AmQuix - that one had to hurt!! What could this mean across the country as other current & former IBO's contest the legality of Q's non-compete clause? Looks like another devastating blow to an already crumbling foundation in the 50 year old Amway business.

More to come as this story unfolds.......
