Abstract

This article is the companion article to Deontology posted on March 30, 2021.

The question presented is Donald Trump guilty of obstruction of justice? Obstruction of justice is any willful interference with the orderly administration of justice.

Did Michael Cohen, a convicted felon act on his own or at the direction and for the benefit of Donald Trump? If so, we may have a criminal and civil Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO) case.

The answers to these questions can be gleaned from my article: Civil RICO: A Tool of Advocacy, New York State Bar Association Journal/Nov/Dec 2016, pgs. 11-14 by clicking on ssrn link to published articles at: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2297846
