2023These statutorily listed indicators of fraud are a necessary part of the analysis of a fraudulent transfer claim because nefarious intent is rarely provable through direct evidence; courts therefore need to consider whether they can “infer fraudulent conduct from the circumstantial evidence and the surrounding circumstances of the transactions.” In re XYZ Options, Inc., 154 F.3d 1262, 1271 (11th Cir. 1998); see also Max Sugarman Funeral Home, Inc. v. A.D.B.

2023Once such a relationship has been established, there are two pathways by which a fraudulent transfer claim may be raised, one of which is applicable only “if the creditor’s claim arose before the transfer,” and one of which is available regardless of whether “the creditor’s claim arose before or after the transfer.” See Tolle v. Fenley, 2006 UT App 78, ¶ 20 , 132 P.3d 63 ; see also Utah Code §§ 25-6-5, -6 (2016).
