- 19 - d. Conclusion Respondent has failed to prove that, with respect to the United States, Steven made a fraudulent transfer within the meaning of Fla. Stat. sec. 726.106(1). 3. Fla. Stat. Sec. 726.105 a. Introduction To prevail under Fla. Stat. sec. 726.105(1), respondent must show that the transfer was made either with (1) fraudulent intent or (2) without receiving a reasonably equivalent value in exchange, and the debtor knew, or should have known, his debts would be beyond his ability to pay as they fell due. Respondent has failed to make either showing. b. Fla. Stat. Sec. 726.105(1)(a) To prevail under Fla. Stat. sec. 726.105(1)(a), respondent must show, among other things, that the transfer was made with “actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor of the debtor”. Fla. Stat. sec. 726.105(2) provides that, in determining actual intent, consideration may be given to (but is not limited to) several factors. Respondent directs our attention to the following of those factors: 1. The transfer was to an insider (including a relative). 2. Before the transfer was made, the debtor had been sued or threatened with suit. 3. The transfer was of substantially all the debtor’s assets.Page: Previous 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 Next
