The federal RICO law was enacted as part of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 and has been used extensively in criminal prosecution of organized crime. At the time of its adoption, the law also authorized private civil suits seeking treble damages and attorneys' fees for unlawful acts of so-called "legitimate" businesses. These civil RICO suits have arisen in a wide variety of corporate and commercial situations. Banks, franchisors, marketing firms, technology providers, their suppliers and their clients have all been impacted by this new form of litigation. These state and federal civil claims are often brought in concert with fraud, antitrust, deceptive trade practices and franchise law claims, making this area of law particularly complex. As this scenario emerged, and Supreme Court decisions supported the use of RICO in business disputes, CCH introduced the RICO Business Disputes Guide. The Guide gives a comprehensive view of civil "racketeering" litigation arising from business dealings. Subscribe today to:
- Understand RICO law as it has evolved in the courts - Since federal RICO law has, by and large, developed in the courts through the
thousands of state and federal decisions handed down in recent years, the thrust
of the Guide is to detail and explain these key decisions. With full-text reporting
and expert analysis, the Guide presents a view of this emerging area of law you
just won't find anywhere else. The Internet and CD-ROM versions include
searchable texts of over 5200 court decisions.
Familiarize yourself with federal and state racketeering laws - The Guide comes complete with the full text versions of federal racketeering laws and those for 31 states and U.S. territories.
Stay current on cases in progress and pending federal and state legislation - Subscribers are kept up-to-date with the full text updates of current cases from both the federal and state courts provided on a monthly basis. In addition, the Guide provides a U.S. Supreme Court Docket of RICO cases, plus a list of pending legislation that is updated as changes occur. Together, these inclusions allow subscribers to monitor the current state of both case law and legislation, and then adjust their approach accordingly.
Find what you need quickly and easily - With rapidly changing, multi-tiered subject matter, the ability to find topics, cases and decisions quickly and easily is key. The Guide's Cumulative and Topical Indexes along with clear annotations and tab guides let subscribers access information efficiently.
