In Medical Marijuana, Inc. v. Horn, No. 23-365 (Apr. 2, 2025), the U.S. Supreme Court held that a plaintiff could seek treble damages for business or property loss—even if the loss resulted from a personal injury—in a civil Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) claim under 18 U.S.C. § 1964(c), which permitted a cause of action for “[a]ny person injured in his business or property” by reason of a criminal RICO violation.
