Defendant’s conviction for procuring or offering false information for filing and insurance fraud, arising from a stolen vehicle report filed by defendant, is affirmed where: 1) defendant’s conviction under Penal Code section 115 was not preempted by Vehicle Code section 20 or 10501; and 2) CALCRIM No. 2000 more than adequately conveyed to the jury that it was required to find that defendant made a fraudulent insurance claim, payment of which she was not entitled to receive.
