Tortious interference, also known as intentional interference with contractual relations, in the common law of torts, occurs when a person intentionally damages the plaintiff's contractual or other business relationships. This tort is broadly divided into two categories, one specific to contractual relationships (irrespective of whether they involve business), and the other specific to business relationships or activities (irrespective of whether they involve a contract). There is also a tort of negligent such interference.

See you in court, maybe. Depends on the details of the contract.

On the other hand: "That's a nice hotel, you have here, Mr. Four Seasons. Be a shame to see something happen to it."

"And with Capone out of the way, Nitti, no longer worried about competition, was able to take over the South Side of Chicago."

Full disclosure: IANAL.
