Original Note:
In American law, an "overt act" refers specifically to an action which is improper even if it would otherwise have been legal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overt_act The DA is pursuing charges consistent with a RICO act, which requires that the object of the overt act itself be a crime. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketeer_Influenced_and_Corrupt_Organizations_Act
