MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

HADEN, Chief Judge.

Pending before the Court is the Defendant’s motion for summary judgment. The Plaintiff brought this action seeking injunctive and monetary relief for the alleged violation of a restrictive covenant not to compete on the part of the Defendant, a former employee. The Defendant asserts two basic reasons in support of his motion: (1) the Court lacks jurisdiction over this case because the amount in controversy is less than $50,000.00 pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a); and (2) the restrictive covenant is unreasonable and overbroad.
