MUJI 2d CV1402
"Economic Relationship" Defined.
An economic relationship exists when [name of plaintiff] has a reasonable expectation of economic benefit from [his/her/its] relationship with one or more third parties. This expectation must be present at the time of the interference.
An economic relationship can be based upon an existing contract but does not have to be. It is enough if you find that there were either dealings or a course of conduct between [name of plaintiff] and [name of third party] from which [name of plaintiff] had a reasonable expectation of economic benefit. The expected benefit must be likely to occur but does not have to be a certainty.
