In Orlando, Fl, for 2 1/2 years, I was working as a W2 employee, but I was getting paid as a W1099 independent contractor without benefits and no overtime pay. I've never signed a non-compete agreement, and about one month ago, I quit my job and started my own junk removal businesses, and yesterday, I was contacted by text message by my former employer and he was threatening me to stop and close my business because I violated the non-compete agreement. I was working misclassified and never signed any non-compete agreement. Can he sue me? Can I sue him because I was getting paid as an independent contractor, but I was working as a W2 employee every day from 8:00 am until he said you are clear for the day after 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 hours shift!?

So if you find employment outside of the mileage are you able to work or is the amount of time still in effect
