- Notice of docket entry received from Appeals Court Please take note that on October 7, 2025, the following entry was made on the docket of the above-referenced case: ORDER (RE#1): The plaintiffs Anaplan Parent, LP and Anaplan, Inc. have filed a motion under Mass. R. A. P. 6. After the Superior Court denied their motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to enforce the terms of a non-competition agreement and to enjoin the defendant Timothy Brennan from continuing in his current employment with Pigment, the plaintiffs seek the same relief from the single justice while they pursue an appeal from the denial of the preliminary injunction by the Suffolk Superior Court in docket no. 2584CV02350. The Superior Court concluded that the non-competition agreement was not enforceable as it did not comply with the Massachusetts Noncompetition Agreement Act (MNAA), finding that the agreement was not signed by Brennan's employer, but rather a parent or grandparent company of the employer. The authority of the single justice to order an injunction pending appeal is limited. In a civil case, "[a]n appellant seeking a stay pending appeal must ordinarily meet four tests: (1) the likelihood of appellant's success on the merits; (2) the likelihood of irreparable harm to appellant if the court denies the stay; (3) the absence of substantial harm to other parties if the stay issues; and (4) the absence of harm to the public interest from granting the stay." Property Acquisition Group, LLC v. Ivester, 95 Mass. App. Ct. 170, 180 (2019), quoting C.E. v. J.E., 472 Mass. 1016, 1017 (2015). After careful review of the plaintiffs' motion, memorandum and supporting documents, the defendant's response, and the trial court judge's lengthy decision and rulings of law issued after hearing, I am not persuaded that the plaintiffs have demonstrated entitlement to injunctive relief. While the legal question concerning the definition of an employer under the MNAA may be a matter of first impression for the appellate courts, the analysis detailed in the judge's decision demonstrates support for the court's rationale, and there has been no showing to disturb the status quo at this juncture. Accordingly, the motion requesting an injunction is denied. (Tan, J.) *Notice/attest/Squires-Lee, J.
