Lincoln House, Inc. v. Paul W. Dupre
Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
LEVIN H. CAMPBELL, Circuit Judge.
Lincoln House, Inc. (“Lincoln”) brought this action under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1961, et seq. (“RICO”) against Paul and Lauren Dupre in the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire. The district court dismissed the complaint for failure to state a claim for which relief could be granted. Lincoln appeals. We agree with the district court that the complaint should be dismissed, but for different reasons, namely, because Lincoln’s alleged RICO claim is not ripe for judicial consideration.
