Microsoft Corporation v. Odom, et al.

Case Updates

NCLC urged the Supreme Court to grant review of this case to consider whether a corporation can form an “enterprise” under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) where the alleged combination exists solely of two corporations engaged in a marketing relationship. In its brief, NCLC argued that the statute’s plain language does not bear such a result and that treble damages liability should not be available where the suggested “enterprise” constitutes no more than the alleged pattern of racketeering activity itself.
