The Firm obtained dismissal of an action commenced by a consumer alleging that she was fraudulently induced to refinance her vehicle in violation of, among other things, 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c) of the Racketeering Influence and Corrupt Organization Act (“RICO”). The court credited our argument that the complaint was barred for want of subject matter jurisdiction and that plaintiff’s RICO claims were insufficiently alleged as a matter of law. Although plaintiff appealed to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, the dismissal was affirmed.
