15 Trein, Inc. entered into a one-year, $1 million contract with Mia, a sports celebrity, to promote
Trein's products. E-presto Inc., a competitor of Trein, was interested in having Mia promote its products
but knew of her contract with Trein. E-presto offered Mia a three-year, $5 million contract. Mia left Trein
and signed with E-presto. If Trein sues E-presto for tortious interference with a contract, E-presto:
a.
will be able to establish a justification since E-presto was acting to protect
an existing economic interest.
b.
will be able to establish a justification because, in talking to Mia, E-presto
was exercising its First Amendment freedom of speech.
C.
will be able to establish a justification because to decide otherwise would
subject Mia to involuntary servitude.
d. will not be able to establish a justification.
