3.15-1 Tortious Interference
- General
Revised to January 1, 2008
The
plaintiff has claimed that the defendant tortiously
interfered with its existing contract with <name
of contracting party> [and/or with its business
expectancy] to <identify subject matter of
contract>. First, the plaintiff must prove that
it had an existing contract with <name of
contracting party> [or that it had a business
expectancy]. Second, the plaintiff must prove that
the defendant knew of that contract [or business
expectancy]. Third, the plaintiff must prove that
the defendant tortiously interfered with that
contract [or business expectancy]. Finally, the
plaintiff must prove it suffered an actual loss as a
result of the defendant's alleged tortious
interference. I will explain each of these four
elements for you.
