[In Count (count number) of the Indictment/Complaint, the]
[The] Defendant, (defendant’s name), is charged with the offense
of Fraudulent Use of a Credit Card.
A person commits the offense of Fraudulent Use of a Credit
Card, if with intent to defraud [the issuer] [another person or
organization providing money, goods, services, or anything else
of value] [any other person], the person [obtains] [attempts to
obtain] [conspires to obtain], [money] [goods] [services]
[anything else of value] that together exceeds $300 in any six-month period [by representing without the consent of the
cardholder that the person is the holder of a specified card]
[by representing that the person is the holder of a card and
such card has not in fact been issued].
There are four material elements of the offense of
Fraudulent Use of a Credit Card, each of which the prosecution
must prove beyond a reasonable doubt.
These four elements are:
1. That, on or about (date) in the [City and] County of
(name of county), the Defendant [obtained] [attempted to obtain]
[conspired to obtain], [money] [goods] [services] [anything else
of value]; and
2. That the [money] [goods] [services] [anything else of
value] together exceeded $300 in any six-month period; and
3. That the Defendant did so [by representing without the
consent of the cardholder that the person is the holder of a
specified card] [by representing that the person is the holder
of a card and such card has not in fact been issued]; and
4. That the Defendant did so with intent to defraud [the
issuer] [another person or organization providing money, goods,
services, or anything else of value] [any other person].
“Intent to defraud” means that the Defendant either (a) intended
to use deception to injure [the issuer’s interest] [the interest
of another person or organization providing money, goods,
services, or anything else] [any other person’s interest], which
had value, in which case the requisite state of mind as to each
of the foregoing elements is “intentionally,” or (b) knew that
he/she was facilitating an injury to [the issuer’s interest]
[the interest of another person or organization providing money,
goods, services, or anything else] [any other person’s
interest], which had value, in which case the requisite state of
mind as to each of the foregoing elements is “knowingly.”
