  • holding that when defendants failed to argue an “open question” on a motion to dismiss, “there is no basis” for dismissing the claim
  • noting that the RICO wire fraud scheme “need not otherwise be prohibited by state or federal law, nor need it fit traditional common law concepts of fraud”
  • dismissing trespass claim alleging that defendants engaged in \vexatious litigation\ that damaged plaintiff's reputation and pocketbook
  • dismissing unjust enrichment claim based on alleged improper securing of a judgment because the judgment alone did not constitute a transfer of property
  • granting a preliminary injunction based on likelihood of success of RICO claim
  • finding unjust-enrichment claim “premature at best” where enrichment had not yet occurred
