1Opinion of the Court
FLOYD R. GIBSON, Circuit Judge.
Paul Handeen appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of the Orlins & Brainerd Law Firm and its principals (collectively the “Firm”) on his claims under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”), 18 U.S.C. §§ 1961-1968 (1994 & Supp. I 1995), and various other provisions of federal and Minnesota state law. 1 Given the procedural posture of this case, we find ourselves constrained to reverse the district court’s dismissal of Handeen’s RICO and state law causes of action, but we otherwise affirm.
