   California Business Torts: Commercial Transactions Litigation

20. CIVIL CONSPIRACY

The elements of a case for civil conspiracy are as follows: (1) the formation and operation of a conspiracy; (2) the wrongful act or acts done pursuant thereto; and (3) the damage resulting from such act or acts.

The wrongful acts may be any civil wrongs; for existence, fraud or inducing breach of contract. A key litigation consideration is the availability of joint and several liability.

The Scarlett Law Group handles commercial transactions, business matters and litigation in these areas: There are at least 23 common law business torts recognized by most states.
