Racketeering Act

This act addresses racketeering, establishing a statutory framework that defines the terms used to identify such conduct and sets out the activities it forbids. It attaches penalties to those prohibited activities and designates the authority responsible for enforcing them. Alongside that enforcement power, it provides civil remedies related to racketeering, so the conduct it reaches may be answered through civil proceedings as well as penal ones.
