In Plazzo v. Nationwide Mut. Ins. Co. (Feb. 14, 1996), 9th Dist. No. 17022, 1996 Ohio App, the Court considered a non-competition clause that was identical to the one at issue in the present case. The Court held as a matter of law that the one-year restriction against working for other insurance companies within a 25 mile radius was a reasonable restriction that protected Nationwide's legitimate business interests and that the restriction did not cause any undue hardships for the agent, because the agent could either work for competing insurance companies outside the 25 mile radius or continue working as an agent for other companies within the 25 mile radius and merely forfeit the commissions. Id. at 12-13.
