Opinion
RATTIGAN, Acting P. J.
Appellant Golden State Linen Service (hereinafter Golden State) is a corporation engaged in the linen supply, exchange and delivery business. Respondents Vidalin and Kingsborough left its employ and, with respondents Hodges and Frank, formed respondent Empire Linen Service (Empire) as a similar corporate business. After Empire had directly competed with Golden State in the latter’s trade area, Golden State brought the present action against the various respondents (Vidalin and Kingsborough in the first instance, the others by subsequent amendment of the complaint).
