Mont. Crim. Jury Instr. 5-108(a) (2022)
Issues in Intimidation
To convict the Defendant of the charge of intimidation, the State must prove the following elements:
1. That the Defendant communicated to _________________________ a threat to [inflict physical harm on (him/her/any other person)] [subject any person to physical confinement or restraint] [commit any felony];
AND
2. That the Defendant was without legal authority to perform the threatened act;
AND
3. That the circumstances reasonably tended to produce a fear that the threat would be carried out;
AND
4. That the Defendant had the purpose to cause the alleged victim to [perform] [omit the performance of] any act.
If you find from your consideration of all the evidence that all of these elements have been proved beyond a reasonable doubt, then you should find the Defendant guilty.
If, on the other hand, you find from your consideration of all the evidence that any of these elements has not been proved beyond a reasonable doubt then you should find the Defendant not guilty.
