Can an MD Block Me?

My MD (and industry lead) blocked my move to another desk. Not only that, but he went to his boss who personally told the other MD I spoke with, to not hire analysts from my class. It's a little awkward because we're on the same floor.

I've been at the BB for a year (Banking, not S&T). General bank policy would allow for the move. Have you guys ever heard of this? He told me that I have a three year commitment (that I was never informed of).
