CONT

At one time, it used to be widely thought that a combination to injure was not actionable, unless it was inspired by malice or "disinterested malevolence". But as now formulated, a combination to injure another is prima facie actionable unless there is some justification recognized by law. Thus the critical issue is the object or purpose of those acting in concert.
