N.C.P.I.—Crim. 219B.40
CREDIT CARD (FINANCIAL TRANSACTION CARD) FRAUD-CREDIT CARD STOLEN, FORGED, FALSELY REPRESENTED, EXPIRED OR REVOKED. FELONY; MISDEMEANOR.
The defendant has been charged with felonious credit card fraud.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense, the State must
prove five things beyond a reasonable doubt:
First, that the defendant intended to defraud.2
Second, that he used a credit card which was (describe deficiency).3
Third, that he knew the credit card was (describe deficiency).
Fourth, that he used the credit card for the purpose of obtaining
[money] [credit] [goods] [services] [something of value].
And Fifth, that (during a six-month period) the defendant thereby
obtained more than $500 worth of [money] [credit] [goods] [services]
[something of value].
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that [on or
about the alleged date] [between the alleged dates], the defendant with
the intent to defraud used a credit card which he knew was (describe
deficiency) for the purpose of obtaining [money] [credit] [goods]
[services] [something of value] and that the defendant thereby obtained
more than $500 worth of [money] [credit] [goods] [services] [something
of value], it would be your duty to return a verdict of guilty of felonious
credit card fraud. However, if you do not so find or have a reasonable
doubt as to one or more of these things, you will not return a verdict of
guilty of felonious credit card fraud4 but must determine whether the
defendant is guilty of non-felonious credit card fraud. Non-felonious
credit card fraud differs from felonious credit card fraud in that the State
need not prove that (during the six-month period) the defendant thereby
obtained more than $500 worth of [money] [credit] [goods] [services]
[something of value].
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that [on or
about the alleged date] [between the alleged dates], the defendant with
the intent to defraud used a credit card which he knew was (describe
deficiency) for the purpose of obtaining [money] [credit] [goods]
[services] [something of value], it would be your duty to return a verdict
of guilty of non-felonious credit card fraud. If you do not so find or have
a reasonable doubt as to one or more of these things it would be your
duty to return a verdict of not guilty.
