1Opinion of the Court
BAUER, Chief Judge.
Plaintiff, Lipin Enterprises, appeals the dismissal of its complaint for failure to state a claim pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). The district court dismissed Lipin’s complaint, a civil RICO action, on the alternative grounds that the complaint failed to allege a RICO enterprise and failed to allege a pattern of racketeering activity. Lipin challenges both of these grounds as error. We agree with the district court that Lipin failed adequately to allege a pattern of racketeering activity. We affirm the dismissal of the complaint on that ground.
