Edward D. Jones & Co., LP v. DuCharme, et al.  
In Edward D. Jones & Co., LP v. Ronald F. DuCharme and Wells Fargo Investments, a three arbitrator panel refused to enforce an overly broad non-solicitation agreement against broker Ducharme and his new employer. Edward D. Jones asserted that mailings and telephone calls notifying clients of Ducharme’s change in affiliation constituted solicitations.Steve Rau was successful in convincing the FINRA panel in refusing to enforce a temporary restraining order Jones had obtained fifteen days earlier. See Edward D. Jones v. Ronald F. Ducharme et al., FINRA Arbit. No. 09-00659, Order dated March 16, 2009.
