He didnt get fired because of his marital status. He got fired because of his possible conflict.

Direct competition or not... thats an opinion... what if his firm was planning to expand to the other city?

If his 90 day probabation was up they would have gotten rid of him anyways but he would have been given some compensation.

And it should be noted that this is not direct competition. This is a competing company in a different city.
