THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

Fannin County, Texas

Trial Court No. 22758

Opinion by Justice Carter

O P I N I O N

I. Factual Background

A. The Leasing Business 

For more than twenty years, Raymond Waier Wirth owned and operated a successful

automobile leasing business. The business was operated by two corporations: RW Leasing did the

marketing of vehicles and Wirth Leasing, Inc., provided the funding sources and received one-third

of the profits. Wirth was the sole owner of Wirth Leasing, Inc., and was a fifty percent owner with

James Rogers, sales manager, of RW Leasing. The sales force contacted prospective customers

interested in leasing a vehicle; based on the customers' requests, Wirth's company would then contact

automobile dealerships and locate the vehicle desired. Wirth Leasing, Inc., had agreements with

several major banks wherein Wirth would arrange for transfer of title to the vehicle and assign the

lease contract to the bank funding the transaction. After the lease and the customer were approved

by the funding bank, a draft drawn on an account of RW Leasing at the Prosper, Texas, bank was

sent to the automobile dealership for the purchase price of the vehicle and the vehicle was delivered

to the customer. The automobile dealership, on receipt of the draft, would prepare the title

documents placing ownership of the vehicle in the funding bank and a draft would be sent to Wirth's

bank. When the funding bank received title, it would electronically transfer funds into the RW

Leasing bank account in the Prosper Bank. At that time, Wirth would issue a check on the RW

Leasing bank account and the draft to the dealership was then honored. The customer made lease
The indictment alleged that pursuant to one scheme and continuing course of conduct, Wirth

intentionally and knowingly unlawfully appropriated motor vehicles of the aggregate value of

$200,000.00 or more by bringing about a transfer of title without the effective consent of Bonham

Chrysler Plymouth Dodge Jeep Eagle, Inc.; Toyota of Lewisville, Inc.; McKinney Dodge, Inc.; Lexus

of Clear Lake, Inc.; and Park Place Motorcars Dallas, the owners of the property, and with the intent

to deprive the owners of the property. TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.03(a) (Vernon Supp. 2008).

payments to the funding bank according to the terms of the contract. Wirth's agreement with the

funding banks involved fees or compensation paid to his company on the contracts that had been

approved. This process had been in place for several years until the early part of 2005, when some

of the drafts sent to automobile dealerships were unpaid andWirth closed the Prosper bank accounts.

B. Unpaid Drafts Led to Theft Conviction

Fifteen drafts to automobile dealerships, all signed by Rogers, involving over $500,000.00

were unpaid. Wirth later filed bankruptcy and discharged a great amount of debt.

Wirth was indicted for theft of property over $200,000.00 in connection with the transfer of

title of the fifteen vehicles when the drafts for each went unpaid. Allegations of theft involved one

Fannin County automobile dealership and other allegations from other dealerships outside the

county; they were prosecuted as a continuing conduct or scheme. The jury found Wirth guilty of 1

the lesser offense of theft of $20,000.00 or more but less than $100,000.00 and assessed punishment

at ten years' imprisonment and a $10,000.00 fine, and recommended community supervision. The

trial court sentenced Wirth accordingly by placing him on community supervision for five years and

ordered that he pay restitution of $128,103.27.

Wirth argues there is no evidence to satisfy the intent requirement—effectively arguing that

the State has reinstituted the notion of a "debtors prison" by convicting him for failing to repay debts.

He further argues that the evidence is insufficient to show that any part of the alleged continuing

theft occurred in Fannin County—and thus venue in that county was improper. Finally, he argues

that if any criminal wrongdoing occurred, it was not at his hand, but at the hand of James Rogers,

an employee of the company. For any of these reasons, he contends, the conviction must be

reversed. 

II. Legal and Factual Sufficiency 

Wirth argues that the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the verdict

because of a lack of any evidence that could support a finding of intent to commit theft—at least as

to any wrongdoing in Fannin County.

A. Standard of Review

In reviewing the legal sufficiency of the evidence, we view all of the evidence in the light

most favorable to the verdict and determine whether any rational trier of fact could have found the

essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. Johnson v. State, 23 S.W.3d 1, 7 (Tex.

Crim. App. 2000).

In a factual sufficiency review, we review all the evidence, but do so in a neutral light and

determine whether the evidence supporting the verdict is so weak or is so outweighed by the great

weight and preponderance of the evidence that the jury's verdict is clearly wrong or manifestly
5

unjust. Lancon v. State, 253 S.W.3d 699, 705 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008); Roberts v. State, 220 S.W.3d

521, 524 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007).

In this analysis, we use a hypothetically correct jury charge to evaluate both the legal and

factual sufficiency of the evidence. Grotti v. State, 273 S.W.3d 273 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008). Such

a charge accurately sets out the law, is authorized by the indictment, does not unnecessarily increase

the State's burden of proof or unnecessarily restrict the State's theories of liability, and adequately

describes the particular offense for which the defendant was tried. Villarreal v. State, 286 S.W.3d

321(Tex. Crim. App. 2009); Malik v. State, 953 S.W.2d 234, 240 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997). Wirth

does not argue that the charge is incorrect or not one authorized by the indictment, and it tracks the

indictment and the statute that criminalizes the conduct involved.

B. The Statute

The jury was charged to determine whether Wirth, pursuant to one scheme or continuing

course of conduct, committed the offense of theft by intentionally or knowingly unlawfully

appropriating property by bringing about a transfer of title (of automobiles) without the effective

consent of the owners and with intent to deprive the owners of property. The jury was also instructed

that consent is not effective if it is induced by deception. TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.01(3)

(Vernon Supp. 2008).

Deception was defined in the charge as

promising performance that is likely to affect the judgment of another in the

transaction and that the actor does not intend to perform or knows will not be
6

performed, except that failure to perform the promise in issue without other evidence

of intent or knowledge is not sufficient proof that the actor did not intend to perform

or knew the promise would not be performed. 

TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.01(1)(E) (Vernon Supp. 2008).

The evidence was that Wirth was the boss in both businesses; Wirth Leasing had the

agreements with the funding banks. Wirth handled bills, signed the paychecks, hired and fired,

instituted sales policies, and controlled all financial aspects of the companies. The Prosper Bank

account manager, Penny Acker, testified that only Wirth conducted banking on behalf of either

company and that she dealt with no other person from either company, that he was the person

notified when a draft arrived and that he was the only person to send payment to cover the drafts. 

In January and February 2005, some drafts written to the automobile dealerships failed to be

honored. Specifically, Toyota of Lewisville received eight drafts which were dishonored; the dates

of the drafts were between January 31, 2005 through February 18, 2005. About the same time, Park

Place Motors in Dallas received three unpaid drafts within thirty days. McKinney Dodge had two

unpaid drafts; Bonham Chrysler received one unpaid draft dated January 19, 2005; Lexus of Clear

Lake had an unpaid draft and contacted Wirth, who sent a check on the RW Leasing account, which

was also dishonored. All of the witnesses from the automobile dealerships testified that they

transferred possession and title to the vehicles, were not paid on the drafts, and were unable to regain

possession of the vehicles. (Title had been transferred by the dealers to the respective funding bank.)

Likewise, the evidence showed that for each of these transactions, the funding bank approved the
7

lease contracts with the Wirth sales force, and funds to honor the drafts were paid by those banks

into the RW Leasing account at the Prosper Bank. The total amount of these fifteen unpaid drafts

amounted to over $500,000.00. Bank records were introduced, but none of the withdrawals to the

Wirth companies have been shown to be something other than ordinary business transactions. On

March 5, 2005, the RW Leasing bank account was closed by Wirth and the balance of $41,813.27

was withdrawn. 

C. Criminal Intent

In summary, Wirth argues that the evidence is not such as would allow a jury to infer that he

had the intent to steal, but rather his argument is that his business failed. 

As previously stated, his conviction is pursuant to a Penal Code provision that criminalizes

taking funds from another without their effective consent—and consent is not effective if induced

by deception—and deception includes promising performance which the promisor does not intend

to perform or knows will not be performed. The statute also states that failure to perform, standing

alone, is not sufficient proof. TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.01 (Vernon Supp. 2008). 

The statute and hypothetically correct jury charge require the State to prove Wirth did not

intend to honor the drafts or knew they would not be honored when issued. Further, failure to honor

the drafts, without other evidence of intent or knowledge, is not sufficient proof that Wirth did not

intend to perform or knew the drafts would not be honored. The State argues the evidence

supporting the finding is:
8

(1) Wirth owned Wirth Leasing and controlled RW Leasing and was solely in charge of

the banking and financial aspects of the business. 

(2) Penny Acker, a banker at the Prosper Bank, told Wirth there were insufficient funds

to cover his drafts and he continued business as usual. 

(3) The automobile dealerships took measures to attempt to collect on the drafts, to no

avail. 

(4) Wirth blamed others and denied involvement. 

(5) His opulent lifestyle showed he "used other people's money for his own personal

benefit without their permission." 

(6) His dishonesty with AmegyBank on an unrelated matter showed intent to steal from

the car dealers.

This Court has previously noted that a claim of theft made in connection with a contract

requires proof of more than an intent to deprive and a subsequent appropriation of the property. If

only an intent and appropriation are present in a contractual matter, there is no criminal conduct

because under the terms of the contract one has the right to "deprive the owner of property" in return

for consideration. Baker v. State, 986 S.W.2d 271, 274 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 1998, pet. ref'd).

We recognize that criminal intent may be, indeed typically must be, inferred from the nature

of the actions taken. Further, mental states are almost always inferred from acts and words. The

mental culpability of a defendant is of such a nature that it generally must be inferred from the
Kiting checks is the process of drawing against balances credited to uncollected checks.

circumstances in which a prohibited act or omission occurs. A mental state is concealed within the

mind of an individual, and can only be determined from his or her words, acts, and conduct. Moore

v. State, 969 S.W.2d 4, 10 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998). We will examine the State's arguments and the

surrounding circumstances for circumstantial evidence that Wirth did not intend to honor the drafts

or knew the drafts would not be paid when they were issued.

1. Testimony of Penny Acker

Acker testified that in the early days of the account, it was flush with money to cover the

drafts, but that began changing about four or five months before Wirth closed the account in 2005.

(December 2004 through early March 2005). At that point, there began to be insufficient funds in

the account to cover the drafts, and the Prosper Bank began returning some of the drafts. Acker

testified she thought Wirth might be kiting checks and thus the bank began holding some deposits

until they cleared the bank on which they were drawn. Acker's specific testimony was that in 2

November 2004 the RW Leasing bank account had twelve insufficient charges. She did not speak

to Wirth about this, but notified a vice president, who she believed had a meeting with Wirth, at

which time Wirth appeared to become agitated, but she did not know if the issues she had been

observing were discussed. When asked if Wirth knew drafts were outstanding when he closed the

bank account, Acker stated, "As far as I can remember, I think we had a couple." Later, the

following exchange occurred:
10

Q. Just two questions, Ms. Acker. Going back to the question about the

account's [sic] closed and a bank is sending a draft money, and if Mr. Wirth

instructed you as you've said -- when the account's closed, to send those back --

A. He didn't instruct us to send it back. I mean --

Q. I'm sorry. I misunderstood your testimony . . . .

This testimony does not specifically show that Wirth was made aware drafts were still outstanding

when he closed the bank account. Further, these events occurred some time after the drafts were

issued and the vehicles were delivered and could not directly show Wirth's intent to deceive at the

time the drafts were issued and the property was appropriated. Relevant intent to deprive the owner

of property is the accused's intent at the time of the taking. Peterson v. State, 645 S.W.2d 807, 811

(Tex. Crim. App. 1983) (citing Griffin v. State, 614 S.W.2d 155 (Tex. Crim. App. 1981)). "In sum,

the State must show a rational factfinder could have found appellant had no intention of fulfilling

his obligation under the agreement, and his promise to perform was 'merely a ruse to accomplish

theft by deception.'" Jacobs v. State, 230 S.W.3d 225 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2006, no

pet.) (quoting King v. State, 17 S.W.3d 7, 15 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2000, pet. ref'd)).

2. Personal Gain

Another consideration in determining whether Wirth had criminal intent is whether he

experienced personal gain from the property obtained. Christensen v. State, 240 S.W.3d 25, 33 (Tex.

App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2007, no pet.). In this case, the State introduced Wirth's bank records,

but has not directed this Court to any instances of Wirth withdrawing funds for his personal gain.
11

No attempt was made to show that any Wirth Leasing, Inc., withdrawal was not a proper business

item. Instead, the State's argument proceeds from the premise that the funding banks placed money

in the RW Leasing account for each draft representing a vehicle transaction and Wirth expended

large sums of money for housing, vehicles, and recreational property and lived an "opulent" lifestyle.

Based on those two facts, the State argues the jury could reasonably infer that Wirth intended to

deceive various automobile dealerships when he had no intent to pay or knew the drafts would not

be paid, all to support his luxurious lifestyle. But the evidence also shows that Wirth's business had

produced substantial revenue for many years sufficient to support an abundant life (according to

Wirth's proposal, the business had gross profits of $651,179.02 for the first nine months of 2004).

Further, such a conclusion requires a stretch of logic. The fact that Wirth lives in a high style could

reasonably lead to an inference that he has access to sufficient funds to support it, not that he

intentionally issued drafts knowing they would not be paid.

Both Wirth and James Rogers were authorized to write checks or make withdrawals from the

RW Leasing bank account. Ultimately, Wirth lost his business of many years and declared personal

bankruptcy. 

D. Extraneous Bad Acts

1. Bloodgood Transaction 

The State argues that evidence of Wirth's intent to deceive is shown by the testimony of

James Bloodgood concerning the unrelated business transaction with Ray Wirth. Wirth complains
12

this evidence was inadmissible, citing Rule 404 of the Texas Rules of Evidence. See TEX.R. EVID.

404.

Jim Bloodgood, a vice president at Amegy Bank, testified to a sequence of overdrafts in two

of Wirth's accounts, and likewise suspected Wirth of kiting. He testified that he ultimately asked

Wirth to liquidate securities that were partially used as collateral on a $50,000.00 line of credit, and

to use the overage (about $36,000.00) toward the uncollected portion of Wirth's accounts, and

Bloodgood released the securities for that purpose. (Wirth had several accounts there, one for

another of his companies, Certified Vehicle Leasing, and another for Wirth Leasing, as well as

personal accounts.) There is evidence that a form used by Bloodgood, signed by him February 10,

2005, was altered after it was in Wirth's possession and after the securities were sold, the funds were

instead transmitted to Wirth's personal account—whereupon he withdrew them in a series of

cashier's checks from a different branch. 

Bloodgood testified that his bank was ultimately unable to collect on the line of credit and

lost an additional $41,000.00 as a result of the uncollected fund transfers. So the question becomes

whether the fact that evidence showed Wirth misled Bloodgood into thinking he would liquidate his

securities to pay the loan to Amegy Bank, when, according to Bloodgood, he managed to sell the

stocks, which were security for the loan, and have the money transferred to his own account without

paying the bank loan is evidence of an intent in this case to deceive the automobile dealerships and

steal their money by having his sales manager issue drafts to the dealerships? 
13

Texas law does not allow the presentation of evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts to

prove the character of a person in order to show action in conformity therewith. TEX. R. EVID.

404(b). "An accused person is entitled to be tried on the accusation made in the State's pleading and

not on some collateral crime, or for being a criminal generally." Sims v. State, 273 S.W.3d 291, 295

(Tex. Crim. App. 2008) (citing Young v. State, 159 Tex. Crim. 164, 165, 261 S.W.2d 836, 837

(1953)). But extraneous offense evidence may be used to prove intent when that is an issue. TEX.

R. EVID. 404(b). In a case involving allegations of theft by deception for failing to pay for goods as

agreed, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has approved evidence of other business transactions

in which the defendant failed to pay for the products. Plante v. State, 692 S.W.2d 487 (Tex. Crim.

App. 1985). Additionally, the theft statute declares that other recent and similar transactions are

admissible to show knowledge or intent. TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.03(c)(1) (Vernon Supp.

2008). The difficulty is this specific extraneous act may also involve the prohibited use of character

evidence: to prove the character of a person in order to show action in conformity therewith. See

1 Goode, Wellborn & Sharlot, Texas Practice: Guide to the Texas Rules of Evidence § 404.6.3

(3d ed. 2002 & Supp. 2009). But if the testimony of Bloodgood regarding the other bank transaction

is admissible on the issue of intent, it does constitute some evidence on that material issue.

Logically, if this evidence is relevant on the issue of intent, it is some evidence from which a jury

could infer that Wirth did not intend to honor the drafts or knew they would not be honored, and
14

therefore meets the minimum required for the legal sufficiency test. Relying on Plante, we find the

evidence was admissible under Rule 404(b). 

Reviewing the evidence for factual sufficiency, we do so in a neutral light to determine if the

evidence is so weak or so against the great weight and preponderance of the evidence that the jury's

verdict is clearly wrong and unjust. This review requires us to attach some degree of probative value

to the evidence and determine the strength or weakness of the supporting evidence. As we have

previously outlined, the evidence that we found that constituted "some evidence" to allow the jury

to infer the issue of intent was the testimony concerning the other bank transaction. When we look

at that transaction, we find that it is substantially dissimilar to the allegations of deception lodged

against Wirth by this indictment. In the Bloodgood testimony, it is suggested that Wirth manipulated

Bloodgood and his bank into signing a form that later was altered. Since the document was in

Wirth's possession, and since the document's alteration allowed him to receive the funds without

paying the bank loan, it is inferred that he altered it or had it altered. If this allegation is true, Wirth

deliberately took affirmative actions which resulted in his improperly receiving the funds. 

By contrast, the drafts issued to the automobile dealerships were done in the regular course

of Wirth's business that he had successfully conducted for many years. No irregularity (such as

altering instruments) was shown. The drafts were signed by Rogers, who had handled these

transactions for years; the lease contracts were approved by the funding banks; the money was sent

to the leasing bank account and, except for the fifteen drafts executed just before the business
15

collapsed, drafts issued in the same manner had been honored by Wirth's business for a period of

years. For 2004, the company was issuing and honoring at least thirty to forty such drafts every

month. While there is no explanation as to why the funds to pay for the drafts dissipated over a

period of time, neither have we been directed to any evidence of Wirth personally raiding the bank

account. Considering the broad discretion vested in the trial court, while the evidence of the

Bloodgood incident was not inadmissible, we find its probative value on the issue of Wirth's intent

not to honor the drafts to be weak and insubstantial. 

Wirth also argues this evidence should have been excluded under Rule 403 of the Texas

Rules of Evidence. See TEX. R. EVID. 403. We recognize the broad discretion of the trial court to

consider the factors reiterated in Gigliobianco v. State, 210 S.W.3d 637, 641–42 (Tex. Crim. App.

2006). Based on that discretion, we cannot say the trial court erred in admitting this evidence. 

2. The Rogers Insurance Policy 

Wirth also complains about the admission of testimony from Rogers about Wirth's

liquidation of what Rogers testified was an insurance policy that represented his retirement account.

The testimony was that Wirth had purchased a life insurance policy designed to compensate Wirth

if Rogers died while employed, with half the benefits to Wirth and half to Rogers' wife. However,

if Rogers retired, he was then to receive the cash value of the policy as his retirement benefit. The

evidence was that Wirth cashed out the policy—at about the same time of the Bloodgood
16

transaction. The State argues this evidence showed Wirth's intent to deprive another of property

which he formed or possessed at or about the same time the fraudulent drafts were issued. 

Once again, the general rule is that evidence of specific instances of conduct may not be

introduced to prove the character of a person in order to show action in conformity to that character.

It may be admissible for other issues, such as intent. But the proposed evidence should have some

relevance to prove the intentional conduct in the trial before the court, not just the intentional

conduct of the extraneous act. Here, it is not entirely evident that Wirth's actions showed an

intention to deprive Rogers—there is no written documentation of this agreement; the Wirth business

purchased the insurance policy and Rogers contributed nothing; Rogers did not retire from the

business, but resigned and left his employment and became employed elsewhere in the automobile

sales business. The fact that Wirth cashed in an insurance policy, some proceeds of which Rogers

claimed, is an entirely different matter than the charge that he appropriated property from car

dealerships by causing Rogers to issue them a draft. The theft statute allows the admission of

evidence that the defendant participated in previous similar transactions to show knowledge or

intent. TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.03(c)(1). At most, the State's argument is that the liquidation

of the insurance policy shows Wirth deprived Rogers of property. The logical extension of this

argument is that Wirth, being unprincipled, would also cheat the car dealers. This is nothing more

than offering character evidence by the use of bad acts to suggest the defendant acted in conformity
17

with that character; such evidence is inadmissible. But, in view of the entire evidence in this case,

this is but a blip on the screen and did not affect Wirth's substantial rights and is therefore harmless.

E. Closing the Account 

Finally, the State argues that Wirth's closing ofthe account and withdrawing $41,000.00 also

proves his intent to deceive. But the intent to deceive must have occurred when the drafts were

written. Does the fact that Wirth withdrew $41,000.00 evidence his intent that when Rogers issued

drafts on approved contracts, Wirth intended that these eight drafts would not be honored? Failing

to pay those drafts was a violation of his contract and perhaps shows a character flaw, but it does not

evidence Wirth's intentions to select drafts that he would refuse to pay. There simply is no evidence

that when these drafts were issued byRogers on approved contracts, Wirth had an intention or knew

they would not be honored. 

F. Jury Verdict 

We recognize that our review of factual sufficiency must be deferential to the jury verdict

with a high level of skepticism about the jury verdict required before a reversal can occur. Roberts,

220 S.W.3d at 524. But here, the jury verdict itself is abstruse. The jury was instructed that it could

convict Wirth under the indictment for theft over $200,000.00 or for lesser offenses. Since the jury

convicted him of the lesser offense of theft over $20,000.00 but less than $100,000.00, and since the

total amount of the fifteen drafts was more than $500,000.00, the jury could not agree that he was

guilty of theft as to some of the eleven to twelve drafts in question. Based on the draft amounts, at
18

most the jury could have found that he was guilty as to four of the drafts. The evidence of the

alleged theft was almost identical in each case; a draft was issued but dishonored and the automobile

dealerships were unable to recover either the money or the automobile. These facts were not

disputed. The extraneous bad acts introduced applied to the entire case. In eleven or twelve of the

draft transactions apparently the jury found this evidence was insufficient—but the same evidence

convinced the jury he was guilty on three or four of the drafts. This provides some additional

skepticism about the verdict. 

III. Venue

Wirth argues that venue was not proper in Fannin County because the State did not produce

legally or factually sufficient evidence that an offense occurred within Fannin County. This

argument was not presented to the trial court. Unless venue is disputed in the trial court, or unless

the record affirmatively shows the contrary, we must presume that venue was proved in the trial

court. TEX. R. APP. P. 44.2(c)(1). In a case in which thefts are aggregated under Section 31.09 of

the Texas Penal Code, they become elements of a single crime and venue is proper in any county in

which the individual thefts or any element thereof occurred. State v. Weaver, 982 S.W.2d 892, 893

(Tex. Crim. App. 1998); see TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.09 (Vernon 2003). The State properly

alleged aggregated offenses and further that one offense occurred in Fannin County, Texas.

Evidence was produced that a draft from Wirth Leasing was presented to a Fannin County

automobile dealer. Since the venue issue was not raised at trial and the record does not show
19

improper venue, we must presume the venue issue was properly proved. Wirth's point of error on

venue is overruled. 

IV. Conclusion 

We have discussed each of the items of evidence that the State proposes indicates that Wirth

deceived the automobile dealers by promising a performance that he did not intend to keep or that

he knew would not be performed. After reviewing all of this evidence in detail and studying the trial

record diligently, we conclude the evidence is factually insufficient to support the jury verdict. It is

so weak that the jury's verdict is clearly wrong and unjust. We remand the case for a new trial.
