Defrauding Secured Creditors
DEFRAUDING SECURED CREDITORS
In order to find Defendant guilty of Defrauding Secured Creditors, you must
find the State has proved the following three (3) elements beyond a reasonable doubt: (
1 ) D e f e n d a n t
[destroyed/removed/concealed/encumbered/transferred/otherwise dealt with] property
subject to a security interest;
(2) Defendant meant to defeat the enforcement of that security interest; and
(3) Defendant acted intentionally.
“Security interest" means any right to personal property a debtor promises to
give to a creditor, if the debtor fails to make payment or to perform an obligation.
“Intentionally” means it was Defendant’s conscious objective or purpose to
avoid enforcement of the security interest.
