Is mere recording a "Transfer" for preference purposes?
Posted: Sat Jan 07, 2012 6:45 pm
I love the crack, Irish style, but record years later and it's a fraudulent conveyance. Try again. Do you seriously think that the consideration issue is the only issue? Any act to hinder, delay or defraud qualifies. 548a1A.

I love the crack, Irish style, but record years later and it's a fraudulent conveyance. Try again. Do you seriously think that the consideration issue is the only issue?

Dennis, you are on crack! The fact pattern was intended to take fraudulent conveyance out of the equation. The uncle ACTUALLY LENT THE MONEY...no fraudulent conveyance...but I love you man! Thanks to all for the really prompt responses on a Saturday.
