IMPERSONATION OF A TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANY DRIVER. MISDEMEANOR.
NOTE WELL: If the defendant impersonated a
transportation network company driver during the
commission of a separate felony offense, then use

The defendant has been charged with impersonation of a
transportation network company1 driver2.
For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense, the State must
prove two things beyond a reasonable doubt:

And Second, that the defendant made the false representation by
(a) [Making a false statement]
(b) [[Falsely displaying [distinctive signage] (or) [emblems], known
as a [trade dress] [trademark] [branding] (or) [logo] of the
transportation network company]]
(c) [Falsely representing that the defendant had a current
connection with the transportation network company]; or
(d) [Falsely representing that the defendant was responding to a
passenger ride request for a transportation network company].
If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or
about the alleged date, the defendant [made a false statement] [[falsely
displayed [distinctive signage] (or) [emblems] known as a [trade dress]
[trademark] [branding] (or) [logo] of the transportation network
company] [falsely represented that the defendant had a current
connection with a transportation network company] [falsely represented
that the defendant was responding to a passenger ride request for a

one or more of these things, it would be your duty to return a verdict of
