it is basically when you intentionally causing a party to breach a contract. For example, if someone had a contract to sell 1000 books to someone and you burned the books, that is malicious interference. This is just an example, you probably wouldn't be charged with malicious interference because it would be a criminal act as well. However, if the interference was only a civil offense you could be sued and taken to civil court.
Wrongful Interference is intentionally trying to harm the business of someone else. Whether it be writing undeserved negative reviews about them or meddling with a contractual agreement they have with a 3rd party. Fair competition is legal, malicious interference is not.
No, because bona fide competitive behavior is a permissible interference, even if it results in breaking of a contract.
Slander itself is a separate legal claim from tortious interference. However, if the slander is used to interfere with a person's business relationship or contractual agreement, it could potentially be considered as tortious interference. It would depend on the specific circumstances of the case.
Contractual
Tortious interference occurs when someone intentionally disrupts a contractual or business relationship between two parties, leading to financial harm. It involves one party persuading or convincing a third party to breach a contract or stop doing business with the other party.
Common law refers to the body of law developed through judicial decisions and precedents rather than written statutes. In the context of contractual incidence, maintenance involves the interference of a third party in a contractual relationship, typically by providing support to one party that encourages them to breach the contract. Maintenance is generally viewed as unlawful, as it undermines the stability and integrity of contractual obligations. Thus, under common law, parties are expected to honor their contractual commitments without undue external influence.
Legal relationship between contracting-parties evidenced by (1) an offer, (2) acceptance of the offer, and a (3) valid (legal and valuable) consideration. Existence of a contractual relationship, however, does not necessarily mean the contract is enforceable, that it is not void (see void contract), or not voidable (see voidable contract).
