This is from California
Actual Fraud: Actual fraud consists of any of the following acts, committed by or with the connivance of a party to a contract with intent to deceive another party to the contract, or to induce the other party to enter into the contract [Civ. Code §1572]:
the suggestion, as a fact, of that which is not true, by one who does not believe it to be true;
the positive assertion, in any manner not warranted by the information of the person making it, of that which is not true, though the person making the assertion believes it to be true;
the suppression of that which is true, by one having knowledge or belief of the fact;
a promise made without any intention of performing it; and
any other act fitted to deceive.
Constructive Fraud: Constructive fraud consists of any breach of duty which, without actual fraudulent intent, gains an advantage to the person in fault, or any one claiming under the person in fault, by misleading another to the prejudice of the person misled, or to the prejudice of anyone claiming under the person misled. [Civ. Code §1573(1)] In addition, constructive fraud consists of any act or omission that the law specially declares to be fraudulent, without respect to actual fraud. [Civ. Code §1573(2)]
