Civil lawsuit question?

Question

Quick question, im sure its ok but summing it up: if the court orders the defendent ALONE to no title transfers of home, car, etc during a lawsuit and the defendent DOES happen to transfer title during the lawsuit in anyway, will the recipient be charged with any crime, or could it be considered a gift? real answers please, thanks ahead of time!

Answer 1

The recipient might, unless he can show good transfer was done in good faith - eg, he took reasonable steps to assure himself title was clear.  More clearly - if the prosecution feels the recipient was trying to help the defendent transfer title against the court order, there could be charges of aiding and abetting, or similar.

Answer 2

It could be considered at minimum Contempt of Court and even worse, fraud and be prosecuted criminally.   If it is determined to be fraud, you could be facing felony charges depending on the dollar amount of the property involved.

Do not do anything of the like without consulting a local attorney that will delineate your exact right and responsibilities to you, along with the consequenses.
