OPINION OF THE COURT

RENDELL, Circuit Judge.

On January 29, 1997, Louis Parise Jr. and his father, Louis Parise Sr., were convicted of various crimes arising out of their involvement with the National Maritime Union (“NMU”). Parise Jr.’s RICO conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c) was predicated on his violation of the Pennsylvania commercial bribery statute, 18 Pa.C.S.A. § 4108(e). Specifically, Parise Jr. was found to have delivered cash bribes to two “port agents” in exchange for their referral of union members with personal injury cases to Parise Jr.’s employer, the Sacks law firm.
