By public policy is meant that which the law encourages for the promotion of the public good .
2 .
That which is against public policy is generally unlawful .
For example ,
to restrain an individual from marrying ,
or from engaging in business ,
when the restraint is general ,
in the first case ,
to all persons ,
and ,
in the second ,
to all trades ,
business ,
or occupations .
But if the restraint be only partial ,
as that Titius shall not marry Moevia ,
or that Caius shall not engage in a particular trade in a particular town or ,
place ,
the restraint is not against public policy ,,
and therefore valid .
