Questão jurídica principal
Whether the leasing schemes were fraud rather than breach of trust
Decisão extraída
The vehicles were obtained through an initial and astucious deception about the defendant's intention to return them; fraud was therefore correctly retained.
Fundamentação extraída
A person who from the outset does not intend to perform and hides that intention astuciously commits fraud when the lessor has no reasonable means to verify performance; the factual findings on intent were binding.
