Shoddy,the Owner of Shoe Repair,was Contemplating Retirement

Shoddy,the owner of Shoe Repair,was contemplating retirement.He therefore contracted to sell his business to Pauline Parker.Shoe Repair was located in Hoosierburg,Indiana,which has a population of 5,233.Apart from containing a provision entitling Parker to use the Shoe Repair name for the business,the parties' contract included a clause that prohibited Shoddy from opening any competing shoe repair shop in Hoosierburg for a period of one year from the date of the parties' contract.Two months after the date of the contract (and one and one-half months after the sale of the business to Parker had been completed),Shoddy grew tired of retirement.As shoe repair had been his life's work,he opened up a shoe repair shop in Hoosierburg.Parker has sued him in an effort to obtain an injunction against his operation of the competing business,alleging a violation of the parties' contract.How is the court likely to rule?
