Sean Kneafsey successfully prosecuted a contempt trial against Adam Radly and Robert Bates for the violations of a Permanent Injunction and Receivership Order entered by the Honorable Gregory Alarcon of the the Los Angeles County Superior Court.  The trial resulted in Radly and Bates being incarcerated in the Los Angeles County Men's Central Jail.  See In Re Contempt of Adam Radly and Robert Bates, (LASC Case No. BC441388).   The contempt proceeding followed a series of underlying actions including alter ego and Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (now the Uniform Voidable Transfers Act) proceedings.

The Kneafsey Firm successfully defended a claim brought under the federal Rackeeter Influenced and Corrupt Organizations ("RICO") Act.  (18 U.S.C. § 1962).   The RICO Act was passed by Congress in the 1970s to combat organized crime in the United States.  It has since been successfully used by plaintiffs to attack a wide variety of otherwise tortious business activities.
