The Civil RICO framework allows individuals and businesses to pursue legal action for damages from a "pattern of racketeering activity" by an "enterprise". Its significance for legal professionals lies in its application beyond organized crime to various business disputes, including fraud, and its powerful remedies like triple damages and attorney's fees. This makes it a potent tool for plaintiffs but a complex one to defend against, requiring a deep understanding of its stringent requirements and broad scope.

In this program, we will discuss the Civil RICO framework, including the “enterprise” and its connection to patterns of racketeering activity, as well as potential damages as leverage in settlement negotiations.
