Selling an Asset that is Pledged against Loan

If I have an asset that is tied to a loan and I sell that asset but do not give the money to the bank is that a federal offense?


Selling collateral pledged against a loan is a state offense where there are laws to protect the lenders, and a contract law issue. We are not familiar with a federal law protecting lenders from the sale or mortgaged property.
