The category of business tort known as wrongful interference with a contractual relationship has three basic elements: (1) an enforceable contract between two parties, (2) a third party's knowledge of the contract, and (3) the third party's inducing either of the two to break it (not merely reaping the benefits of a broken contract). The third party must interfere for the purpose of advancing his or her economic interest. At what point does competition turn into wrongful interference with a contractual relationship?
