Criminal Law: Inchoate Crimes Conspiracy

Introduction to Inchoate Crimes Conspiracy

Two or more persons who enter an agreement for the purpose of accomplishing an unlawful act or accomplishing a lawful act by unlawful means are guilty of conspiracy. Under the common law definition of conspiracy, the agreement itself constitutes the blameworthy act and, unlike the crime of attempt, no other act in furtherance of the conspiracy is required. Some modern statutes require at least one of the conspirators to perform some overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy.” (1)
