Rico Claim Removal Strategy

Summary

When filing a Notice of Removal to federal court under RICO claims, defendants should clearly outline the basis for removal, including federal jurisdiction due to racketeering activities. Its important to include all relevant procedural details, such as service information and a timeline of proceedings. While capitalizing defendant and plaintiff is not necessary unless at the beginning of a sentence, including constitutional rights violations and the right to a jury trial can strengthen the case. Consider attaching relevant documents like a 48-hour notice to support the urgency and impact of the claims.

The Supreme Court held in Shearson/American Express, Inc. v. McMahon23 that RICO claims are arbitrable.; The arbitrability of RICO claims raises strategic issues which for practioners. For example, a party may waive its right to arbitration by failing to demand arbitration on a timely basis. A determinative factor in deciding if a party has waived its right to arbitration is whether the delay prejudiced the opposing party.A party who, following the district court’s stay of litigation, fails or refuses to participate in arbitration faces dismissal as a potential result. A plaintiff whose complaint includes both arbitrable RICO claims and other nonarbitrable claims should consider whether to file suit asserting all claims and obtain a stay pending arbitration so as to ensure that the statute of limitations does not expire on its nonarbitrable claims while awaiting arbitration. how does this apply to my two other cases that are pending which are not RICO claims?
Case Rating: *
To address your question:
- Arbitration Waiver: Ensure you request arbitration timely to avoid waiving this right.
- Stay Pending Arbitration: Consider filing all claims and requesting a stay to protect against the statute of limitations expiring on nonarbitrable claims.

Introduction:
Defendants James Cronan and Karen Merritt hereby file this Notice of Removal of the above-captioned action from the Superior Court of Massachusetts, Suffolk County, Case No. * CV00006, to the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island, pursuant to * U.S.C. §§ *, *, *, and *.

Statement of Facts:

Subsequently, the sheriff hand-delivered a *-hour notice. My home seizure was based on fraud from over ten years of continuous acts of racketeering.
- The Seventh Circuit allowed the assignment of a RICO claim in Perry v. Globe Auto Recycling, Inc. There, the court held that an assignment for “all claims, demands, and causes of action of whatever kind and nature” arising out of a car seizure was sufficient to transfer the right to bring a RICO claim. Similarly, the seizure of my home should be sufficient to bring this RICO claim.
