Tortious Interference with a Business Relationship
Florida recognizes an independent tort of intentional and unjustifiable interference with business relationships or with a contract.
Tortious interference with a contract and tortuous interference with a business relationship are basically the same cause of action where the only material difference is that in a contract action there is a contract and in the business interference case there is a business relationship.
In both types of cases the conduct by the wrongdoer must be intentional.
The injured victim must establish the following elements:
- existence of a business relationship;
- knowledge of the relationship on the part of the wrongdoer;
- intentional and unjustified interference with the relationship by the wrongdoer;
- damage to the victim as a result of the breach.
