1Opinion of the Court
KANNE, Circuit Judge.
After losing his job at CentiMark Corporation, Appellant James Turnell went to work for one of its competitors. That created a problem, as Turnell’s employment contract contained restrictive covenants barring him from competing with CentiMark or soliciting its customers for two years after termination. The district court issued a preliminary injunction partially enforcing the restrictive covenants, but only to the extent the court deemed necessary to protect CentiMark’s legitimate interests. Turnell challenges the preliminary injunction on appeal. We affirm.
