Grider v. Texas Oil & Gas Corp.
Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit
Decided January 4, 1989No. 87-1671PublishedCited by 107 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
SEYMOUR, Circuit Judge.
Guy Grider brought this action for damages allegedly resulting from violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 1961-1968 (1982) (RICO). The district court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim, concluding that Grider had not alleged the requisite injury under the substantive RICO provisions and therefore had no standing to assert a civil damage claim. The court also held that the RICO conspiracy claims based on those substantive violations must be dismissed as well. Grider appeals and we affirm.1
