Can a doctor, grocer, and other providers of services be deterred from doing business with a convicted drug trafficker?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Monsanto, 852 F.2d 1400 (2nd Cir. 1988):

United States v. Badalamenti, 614 F.Supp. 194, 196 (S.D.N.Y.1985). Other potential providers of essential services may also be deterred from engaging in transactions with a highly publicized defendant. A surgeon or grocer who knows that a patient or customer is under indictment for narcotics trafficking may well have "reasonable cause" to believe that his fees are being paid with tainted assets. Cf. id. If the district court's equitable authority to permit ordinary lawful expenditures is to be effective, payments to third parties made pursuant to that authority must be immunized from post-conviction forfeiture.
