Crinkley v. Dow Jones & Co.

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• observing that the pleading requirement of alleging an “identifiable” rather than “identified” third party to establish business expectancy indicates that the third party’s specific identity or name is revealed at a later time, like at trial
• finding plaintiff’s description of third parties as “manufacturers of medical instrumentation or allied health care products or other products” sufficient
• strongly suggesting that Illinois recognizes the common law tort despite enactment of Deceptive Trade Practices Act
