Botvinick v. Rush Univ. Medical Center, No. 08-1966

In an action for tortious interference with plaintiff's expectation of employment, summary judgment for defendant is affirmed where plaintiff failed to create a triable issue on whether there was purposeful interference by the defendant that prevented the plaintiff's legitimate expectancy of employment from ripening into a valid business relationship, as he had no evidence that defendants prevented him from obtaining clinical privileges at the hospitals in question.
