Description
MAROVITZ, Senior District Judge. Appellant, Dean Lindsey, appeals from a six count conviction for mail fraud, 18 U.S.C. § 1341.1 Lindsey allegedly devised and carried out a scheme to defraud automobile dealers and consumers by exchanging Illinois vehicle titles containing the letters ""S.V."" (salvage vehicle) for Missouri titles which did not contain any notation that the vehicles had previously been salvaged. He then sold the vehicles, apparently without informing the purchasers that the cars had been salvaged, and thereby received an inflated price for them. On appeal, Lindsey contends that: 1) the District Court erred in ruling that the Illinois statute requiring the ""S.V."" designation on the certificate of title was for the purpose of protecting consumers and that a concealment of the ""S.V."" by circumventing the law was fraud as to possible subsequent conumers; and 2) the court erred in ruling that the compulsory mailing of certificates of title by the Secretary of State's Office satisfied the mailing requirement of the mail fraud statute. After a full review of the record, we find Lindsey's arguments to be without merit and therefore affirm the convictions.
