Heading: The Rosetti Incident and the Courtney Incident. The Conspiracy.

Text: 19 The district court describes two further incidents, in which Anthony threatened Francis Rosetti and battered Mark Courtney until each agreed to pay money owed to the Serubos. See DiPasquale, 561 F.Supp. at 1345-46. Victor Szwanki was present during the Courtney incident, and the Serubos participated in both incidents. 20 Based on the various collection incidents, Anthony DiPasquale, Victor Szwanki, August Redding, James DiPasquale, John Serubo, and Peter Serubo were convicted on one count of conspiring to collect claimed debts by extortionate means. We turn now to the merits of their appeals.
