   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-1514
                          and No:  14-1601
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Hot Springs   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Loken and Smith, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Fraud. Following Arkansas law, the district court did not err 
   in determining defendants converted copies of certain customer files 
   created by plaintiff; the district court did not clearly err in awarding 
   damages based on defendants; unjust enrichment; since defendant Cutting 
   Edge had unlimited access to the files plaintiff created for Cutting 
   Edge's customers, the district court did not err in finding for Cutting 
   Edge on plaintiff's claim that Cutting Edge had wrongfully converted the 
   files; the district court did not err in finding plaintiff failed to 
   establish the existence of a business expectancy under Arkansas law; the 
   district court did not err in finding Cutting Edge fraudulently induced 
   plaintiff to send sample knives while intending to use defendant 
   TaylorMade as its engraver for any orders TaylorMade's customers made 
   after seeing the samples; Arkansas's Deceptive Trade Practices Act does 
   not apply to claims regarding business between a manufacturer and a 
   distributor when consumers are not deceived or defrauded; plaintiff failed 
   to prove its RICO claim; attorneys' fees award affirmed; remanded to 
   permit the district court to correct a math error in the calculation of 
   plaintiff's damages on the claim for unjust enrichment.
