Conn. Civ. Jury Instr. 3.15-6
Tortious Interference - Actual Loss
If you find that the defendant tortiously interfered with the plaintiff's <insert contract or
business expectancy>, then you must decide if the plaintiff has proven that (he/she/it) suffered an
actual loss as a result of that interference. The plaintiff must prove that but for the tortious
interference, there was a reasonable probability that the plaintiff would have entered into a
(contract / business relationship with <name of contracting party> or made a profit from
<identify source of profit>. The mere possibility of entering into a contract or making a profit is
not enough. However, the plaintiff need not prove the specific amount of the loss in order to
establish that (he/she/it) suffered an actual loss.
