what are my chances of being my contract being upheld?
My former employer could not in time get me
transfered somewhere closer to home, i was traveling 175 miles round trip. I got a offer from my current employer who had me sighn a non compete, I have been here for less than 3 weeks and have had no contact with any customers due to all the training,I still am traveling 100 miles round trip. My former employee now says they have the opening for me which is 35 miles away from my new job. Although my current employee does go up to that area, the managment team says they will not deliver up their.

To completely answer the question, I would first have to review the contract. In general, non-compete agreements are enforceable. They do, however, have to be reasonable in both their geographic scope and length of time. Given your short time with this employer, even if it were enforceable, you may be able to work something out with them. Have a lawyer take a look at the contract and it may be worth your while to retain someone to negotiate a release. I'd be happy to look at this for you if you want to contact my office. 561 655 4211
